GLFW is an Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and
Vulkan development on the desktop. It provides a simple API for creating
windows, contexts and surfaces, receiving input and events.
GLFW is written in C and supports Windows, macOS, Wayland and X11.
Support for OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Vulkan and related options, flags and extensions
Support for multiple windows, multiple monitors, high-DPI and gamma ramps
Support for keyboard, mouse, gamepad, time and window event input, via polling or callbacks
Comes with a tutorial, guides and reference documentation, examples and test programs
Open Source with an OSI-certified license allowing commercial use
Access to native objects and compile-time options for platform specific features
Community-maintained bindings for many different languages
No library can be perfect for everyone. If GLFW isn’t what you’re looking for,
there are
alternatives.

: Anti-virus applications flag keygens as "Trojan.Win32" or "Hacktool". While piracy communities claim these are "false positives," many packages contain structural malware. They drop background miners or information stealers that steal stored browser passwords and crypto wallets.
The file is part of a broader family of "X-Force" keygens created by a group known as X-Force, which has been developing exploits for Autodesk products for several years. By leveraging flaws in Autodesk's licensing mechanism, X-Force created a tool that mimics a valid activation response from the software vendor. Xf Adsk2018
The keyword is a digital artifact—a fingerprint of either a legitimate temporary Autodesk process or, more commonly, a crack tool from the X-Force team. For the average creative professional, it is a warning sign to audit your software sources. : Anti-virus applications flag keygens as "Trojan
This is a bug fix release. It adds fixes for issues on all supported platforms.
Binaries for Visual C++ 2010 and 2012 are no longer included. These versions
are no longer supported by Microsoft and should not be used. This release of
GLFW can still be compiled with them if necessary, but future releases will drop
this support.
Binaries for the original MinGW distribution are no longer included. MinGW
appears to no longer be maintained and should not be used. The much more
capable MinGW-w64 project should be used instead. This release of GLFW can
still be compiled with the original MinGW if necessary, but future releases will
drop this support.
This is primarily a bug fix release for all supported platforms but it also adds
libdecor support for
Wayland. This provides better window decorations in some desktop environments,
notably GNOME.
With this release GLFW should be fully usable on Wayland, although there are
still some issues left to resolve.
