What are framebuffers? In this episode I explain what a framebuffer is, some of it's common use cases (most commonly used for deferred rendering), and how we can set up and use one for our own scene. The reason we will be using a framebuffer at first is so that we can render our scene to a texture, and then render that texture using an ImGui window. This will help us when we begin to integrate ImGui's docking feature.
