SFML Shaders

[JohnPony]

Does anyone know of a good article that explains the logic behind Shaders, it doesn't necessarily have to be oriented to SFML, as I'm pretty sure the logic is universal. I really don't want a link to some pre-made code, as I want to figure this out myself; I've tried looking around and I just can't find anything that would explain it to me.

Regards,

look at a premade code and figure it out from it?

Good luck with that. You'll have to understand numerous concepts related to both advanced computer graphics and linear algebra if you want to take that route.

SFML is just a cross-platform library that simply offers an abstract interface to deal with graphics, sound, etc. However, it doesn't really do anything with shaders. If you want to learn about writing shaders for OpenGL, then you can find more information at the following websites:
