Overview
flutter_gl_web is a web platform implementation of the flutter_gl package, enabling cross-platform access to OpenGL APIs in Flutter via Dart's dart:ffi. It allows developers to integrate OpenGL-powered graphics and textures into Flutter apps on the web, providing a Texture widget for rendering 3D content. This package bridges native OpenGL capabilities with Flutter’s UI framework, facilitating high-performance visualizations and interactive graphics in web applications.
