or you can do this

You don't need "#include <GL/gl.h>" because it is already included by "#include <SDL2/SDL_opengl.h>" and it also takes care of the problem with OSX.

you didint init SDL, oooof

You don't need "#include <GL/gl.h>" because it is already included by "#include <SDL2/SDL_opengl.h>" and it also takes care of the problem with OSX.

and with:

gcc -lSDL2 -framework OpenGL sdl2_opengl.cpp 

Thanks it work!

I have commented some lines of code that's seemed unnecessary to put in. Tested like this on Debian 11(Linux) it work.

//#include <stdio.h>
//#include <stdint.h>
//#include <assert.h>
#include <SDL2/SDL.h>
#include <SDL2/SDL_opengl.h>
//#include <GL/gl.h>

typedef int32_t i32;
typedef uint32_t u32;
typedef int32_t b32;

#define WinWidth 1000
#define WinHeight 1000

int main (int ArgCount, char **Args)
{

  u32 WindowFlags = SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL;
  SDL_Window *Window = SDL_CreateWindow("OpenGL Test", 0, 0, WinWidth, WinHeight, WindowFlags);
  //assert(Window);
  //SDL_GLContext Context =
  SDL_GL_CreateContext(Window);
...

Thanks it works on win11 !!!
