A few things that don't work nicely. I should probably create separate issues for these.

Issue #3 ImGui source code linkage is broken
User needs to manually install OpenGL development onto their system, and the compiler executable will not run without OpenGL development being installed
I need to provide debug and build launch configs for vscode.
[#2] Add cross platform support and cross compiling support. Currently the code will compile on most systems, and will run fine provided that OpenGL is available, but once in a while there are small things that msvc might catch but gcc says is just fine when it's not.

Because I am locked into using OpenGL 4.6 due to the shader features I use, and do not wish to reimplement the shader using older versions, MacOS will not be a supported platform. MacOS provides OpenGL 4.1 and is deprecated in favor of their Metal driver. I may change my mind later as the project grows, but I will not fix any time soon. Or the problem might go away if I switch to something like WebGPU.
