How do they not need a c compiler on windows. I don't see any immediate explanation, so I'll dig through the source code and report back.
Looks like the glfw library is built for windows as a DLL and then packed as bytes into a go const and loaded at runtime! Cool beans, wish more people could appreciate how fun that is.
Yeah, that's right. Thank you for taking a look!
