  Description     : A C++ toolkit for creative coding

Openframeworks is a c++ library designed to assist the creative process
by providing a simple and intuitive framework for experimentation.

The library is designed to work as a general purpose glue, and wraps
together several commonly used libraries under a tidy interface: openGL
for graphics, rtAudio for audio input and output, freeType for fonts,
freeImage for image input and output, quicktime for video playing and
sequence grabbing.

The code is written to be both cross platform (PC, Mac, Linux, iPhone)
and cross compiler. The API is designed to be minimal and easy to grasp.
There are very few classes, and inside of those classes, there are very
few functions. The code has been implemented so that within the classes
there are minimal cross-referencing, making it quite easy to rip out and
reuse, if you need, or to extend.

Simply put, openFrameworks is a tool that makes it much easier to make
things via code. We find it super useful, and we hope you do too.
