  Can I do the tutorials on linux?

  We have tested the tutorials on Windows and Visual studio on the lab computers and this is what we support. It may work on your computer if it supports OpenGL 4.3 or higher. To get it to work on linux you will need to install the software dependencies on your own.

• OSX?

  Can I do the tutorials on OSX?

  No. OSX does not support all the OpenGL features we make use of.

• OpenGL4.3

  Why do the tutorials require OpenGL 4.3?

  OpenGL 4.3 has support for asynchronous debug messages which greatly help debugging applications as we learn OpenGL for the first time. Some drivers implement async debug as an extensions for lower version numbers.

• git?

  What is Git? Do I have to use it?

  Git is a revision control system. We highly recommend to use it, but if you really do not want to there is an option to download the tutorial package as a zip file. You may have to download it several times during the course, though, since not all tutorials will be released the first week.
