Computer Graphics with Modern OpenGL and C++ (Udemy.com)

All in all this course was a good introduction to OpenGL with some complex topics I'll have to revisit as I make something of my own. That said, most of the theory lessons deserve a retake by the professor as to be easier to follow, without unnecessary repetitions and better articulation. This lessons could also use some additional visual aids. The coding lessons themselves are easy to follow as they are mostly unedited. Will just point out that some of the playing around with the values could be removed. As the teacher points out in the last videos there is a great deal left to explore regarding graphics programming. If you follow along this course expect to end up with some knowledge about the rendering pipeline, some math needed for graphics programming (messing around with vectors and matrices for basically everything), camera movement, textures, importing models, shaders, light (ambient, directional, point and spot light), shadows (directional and omnidirectional), skybox. If you follow along the code you will have a program with the aformentioned functionalities. With that said, the course hasn't been updated in 6 (the theory stays relevant the tools suffer modifications) and students haven't been getting answers in the last ~3 years by the professor, so I cannot give this course more than 3 stars.

So far, everything has been really well explained. I appreciate that we begin with the theory and then move on to coding. I do wish we could have included all the necessary downloads at the start of the course, as I sometimes study without internet access. I'm impressed with the quality of the content and am eager to know when more lectures will be released. Thank you very much for these lessons. P.S. I wish there was a way to follow you on LinkedIn or another platform.

This course was most enthralling. I enjoyed every bit of it and learnt an incredible amount of things that will serve me very well in the future. But it's not enough ! We want more ! You listed a number of concepts that are to be taught eventually in the "Future lessons" section. For the love of god, please do a new course covering those stuffs. Thank you very much Ben. Five well deserved stars.

This course is a brilliant introduction to OpenGL, however I wish there was some form of exercise in each section so that I can apply the knowledge I have acquired. I feel like I know all of the theory but if I were left on my own I would not be able to implement what I have learnt so far on my own.

There's a lot of information, but everything has been explained in a way that I can clearly understand!

The course explains the subject really well

I picked up this course a couple of years back when I decided I wanted to use OpenGL to implement my dissertation project, and I'm so glad I did. It was an absolute lifesaver; so much of the documentation around the web concerning OpenGL is dry and horrible to work through, or often outdated and missing vital info. This course on the other hand has clear explanations of all the concepts you need as well as some of the general graphical theory behind them.

I think the explanation is very comprehensive.

Good course, but it needs more visual aids for describing concepts.

A solid introduction to OpenGL programming. It's a long journey, and I had to backtrack a few times to fix things I broke, but I got it all to work. The addition of shadow mapping and skybox rendering gave it an extra half star on my rating.

Perfect

Good explanation of the brief about the GLEW
