@ -10,16 +10,18 @@ GLFW is an Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and Vulkan
application development. It provides a simple, platform-independent API for
creating windows, contexts and surfaces, reading input, handling events, etc.
The current stable release is version 3.2. See the
[downloads](http://www.glfw.org/download.html) page for details and files, or
fetch the `latest` branch, which always points to the latest stable release.
Each release starting with 3.0 also has a corresponding [annotated
tag](https://github.com/glfw/glfw/releases) with source and binary archives.
GLFW is licensed under the [zlib/libpng
license](https://opensource.org/licenses/Zlib).
This is version 3.2.1, which adds support for statically linking the Vulkan
loader and fixes for a number of bugs that together affect all supported
platforms.
