What is ModernGL?
OpenGL is a great environment for developing portable, platform independent, interactive 2D and 3D graphics applications. The API implementation in Python is cumbersome, resulting in applications with high latency. To solve this problem we have developed ModernGL, a wrapper over OpenGL that simplifies the creation of simple graphics applications like scientific simulations, small games or user interfaces. Usually, acquiring in-depth knowledge of OpenGL requires a steep learning curve. In contrast, ModernGL is easy to learn and use, moreover it is capable of rendering with the same performance and quality, with less code written.
