Description

Current implementation of WGLWidget supports WebGL 1.0 (Equivanlent of OpenGL ES 2.0). It lacks support for Vertex Array Objects and various equivalent functions such as

void glBindVertexArray(GLuint array);

void glGenVertexArrays(GLsizei n,
GLuint *arrays);

are missing.

WebGL 2.0 specs were released in May 2019. It is equivalent of OpenGL ES 3.0. More info here: https://www.khronos.org/webgl/ and https://www.khronos.org/registry/webgl/specs/latest/2.0/.

I request you to include support for WebGL 2.0 in the next release of Wt.

Any update on this front? It has been 3 years since this request was made. I think with all the advances in WebGL and proliferation of 3D content on the web/AR/VR, it is very important that Wt supports latest WebGL standards.
