How to install LWJGL3 in Visual Studio Code?

Question

I want to write a little project for which I have chosen LWJGL library. But I have some problem with installing it into Visual Studio Code IDE. I have found manuals for Eclipse, NetBeans, and IntelliJ, but none for the VSC. Can you please write a detailized guide how to install LWJGL3 into VSC? Please write what and where I should copy files and where to add them into dependencies for my project.

Answer 1

I advise you stick with Maven which is a java widely used dependency manager. It will allow you to build your project independently of any IDE.

So an LWJGL can be build via Maven. Just go to customize section, select what you need and it will show you below how to add LWJGL to Maven.

But also spend some time to know Maven a little. It will help you a lot.
