Documentation
The OpenSceneGraph Support/Documentation section has numerous resources to help you learn about 3D graphics and in particular using OpenSceneGraph. This page is the main index for these resources. Over time we will be adding more resources and writing more in depth and focused programming and reference guides. Help from the community is greatly appreciated.
This section is aimed to be an introduction into the basics of downloading, compiling, installing, running the examples, and writing your first OpenSceneGraph applications. Learn how to develop for those platforms requiring specific build approaches and dependencies.
