I want to learn OpenGL, but it all looks very confusing.
What's the best OpenGL tutorial series? I really want to understand it and how it works.

This book.

OpenGL is difficult at first, but it gets easier afterwards.
It helps if you know basic linear algebra and calculus, but it isn't necessary.

its for legacy opengl, but should be a good place to get started

>but it isn't necessary.
Yes it is. Very much so. Don't dodge the math.

Sorry, I meant that a lot of tutorials have the basic math you need to get started.

Don't learn legacy opengl in the year 2016, seriously.

You need this OP:

Best damn tutorial there is on modern OpenGL.

>Not learning Vulkan
(Seriously though OP, don't learn Vulkan first).
>>54815565
Can confirm, go with this.
However, don't forget about math. Working with graphics, especially 3d graphics, means working with math.

You need only the very basics of linear algebra, stop pretending it's rocket science.
As for ogl itself, this >>54815258 and then you can just read extension specs if you need something more. [spoiler]True story, back in the days I wasn't able to find decent tutorial for framebuffer, so I have to dig through that long-ass txt file[/spoiler]
