This project is a Computer Graphics implementation using OpenGL and C++. The goal is to render the national flag of Guyana and a geometric logo using basic primitives and mathematical transformations.

• Assignment: Project 1 - Flag & Logo Rendering
• Assigned Task: #8 (Guyana Flag & Geometric Logo)
• Framework: OpenGL (GLUT)
• Language: C++

• Basic Primitives: Drawing using Points, Lines, and Polygons.
• Color Accuracy: Implementation of real-world RGB values for the Guyana Flag.
• Transformations:
  • Translation (Positioning)
  • Rotation (Symmetry in Logo)
  • Scaling (Size adjustment)

• src/: Main source code files.
• assets/: Reference images and resources.
• docs/: Technical documentation and design plan.

Follow these steps to set up the graphics environment on your computer.

Windows does not come with C++ and OpenGL tools pre-installed. We will use the built-in Windows Package Manager (winget) to set everything up.

1. Press the Windows Key, type cmd, and press Enter to open the Command Prompt.
2. Type the following and press Enter:

winget --version

1. If you see a version number: Great! Proceed to Step 2.

2. If you see "command not found": You need to install Winget. Go to the Official Microsoft Store Link and install the "App Installer".

• In the same Command Prompt window, copy and paste this command:

 winget install MSYS2.MSYS2

Wait for the installation to finish.

1. Open your Start Menu, search for "MSYS2 UCRT64", and open it (a black terminal will appear).

2. Type the following command to install the compiler, OpenGL, and the Make utility:

   pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-freeglut mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-make

   Press Enter to confirm the installation.

3.Type Y and press Enter when prompted to confirm the installation.

To allow Windows to recognize the tools:

1. Search for "Edit the system environment variables" in the Windows taskbar and open it.

2. Click the Environment Variables button.

3. Under System variables, find Path, select it, and click Edit.

4. Click New and paste this exact path: C:\msys64\ucrt64\bin

5. Click OK on all windows and Restart your Command Prompt.

1. Install Tools: Open Terminal and run:

   xcode-select --install
   brew install freeglut

1. Clone the Project Open your Terminal (Mac) or Command Prompt (Windows) and run:

cd Desktop

git clone https://github.com/nigusmamo/OpenGL-Flag-Logo-Renderer.git

cd OpenGL-Flag-Logo-Renderer

Type the following one-line command:

On macOS:

 make

On Windows:

 mingw32-make

• Mouse Drag: Click and move the mouse to rotate the 3D flag and logo.

• Key [F]: Display the Guyana National Flag with wave animation.

• Key [L]: Display the 3D Tapered Geometric Logo.
