Hi @elfida, having some experience with C++/OpenGL myself, I have some suggestions to improve this tutorial.
- Using glBegin()/glEnd() to draw primitives isn't considered good style anymore in modern OpenGL. Try an implementation based on Arrays instead (look up glDrawArrays)
- I expect that a new user will have difficulties to compile and link your example code. I'd suggest to provide a CMakeLists.txt with your source code.
- You include stdio.h, but you don't seem to use it anywhere in your code. I also advise to use
<iostream>in C++ code. - Indent code snippets with 4 space to achieve nicer rendering of code sections
Keep up with posting tutorials!
thank you sir

My point is, that you should provide instructions on how to build your sample code. You can either provide a Visual Studio Solution or a Makefile. CMake is a meta build system for C and C++. So if you provide rules to build your project in a CMakeLists.txt, the reader can generate a project for its favorite IDE or a Makefile from it. I recommend Daniel Pfeiffer's talk on "Effective CMake" on YouTube
