Vs2015 configuring OpenGL (glfw, glew)

I was in charge of the model part, so I picked up the OpenGL I had learned before. By the way, I have been learning OpenGL in Xubuntu before
. Linux configuration programming environment is really quite convenient. Due to project reasons, have to Windows under the implementation of again. But the configuration environment feels more troublesome, so there is this article, just for the convenience of Xiaobai.

* VS2015
glfw
*>w
VS2015 Community Edition is free, easy to debug, the disadvantage is too big, but it is really the best IDE under Windows.
GLFW GLFW homepage can also use GLUT, just to feel a little bit new.
GLEW GLEW home page updated to version 2.0.


Set up project
Select the Win32 Console project and right-click on the solution ->;

ah select linker ->;
:
:>; Input is added in the additional dependencies OpenGL32. Lib, glfw32. Lib, glew32s. Lib

Here to say a bit, you can use glfw32dll. Lib, glew32. Lib. This requires the corresponding DLL to be placed in the project directory. However, if you select glew32.lib, many functions will not be linked, so it is recommended to choose glfw32s.lib.
Then look for a slightly more complicated program on the Internet
