Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install cogl on Fedora 34.

What is cogl

Cogl is a small open source library for using 3D graphics hardware to draw pretty pictures. The API departs from the flat state machine style of OpenGL and is designed to make it easy to write orthogonal components that can render without stepping on each others toes. As well aiming for a nice API, we think having a single library as opposed to an API specification like OpenGL has a few advantages too; like being able to paper over the inconsistencies/bugs of different OpenGL implementations in a centralized place, not to mention the myriad of OpenGL extensions. It also means we are in a better position to provide utility APIs that help software developers since they only need to be implemented once and there is no risk of inconsistency between implementations. Having other backends, besides OpenGL, such as drm, Gallium or D3D are options we are interested in for the future. cogl 1.22.8 3.fc34 x86_64 498 k cogl-1.22.8-3.fc34.src.rpm fedora A library for using 3D graphics hardware to draw pretty pictures http LGPLv2+ Cogl is a small open source library for using 3D graphics hardware to draw pretty pictures.

Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install cogl using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install cogl
