openAdd WebGL 2.0 support (Equivalent to OpenGL ES 3) to WGLWidget
0%
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.
