Incorrect Documentation on crates.io page, unable to use this crate

Open Johnrobmiller opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

On the crate page (https://crates.io/crates/glfw/0.54.0), it says to compile and "install" GLFW 3.x. However, when I go to the GLFW website and download their stuff, there is no way to install anything -- it's just a bunch of dll files.

If the documentation is wrong about how to setup the package, and if the solution can't be googled, then this is functionally the same as saying the package is busted and unusable.

Updating the docs should not take very long, and it seems urgent to me.

Have you tried installing CMake before building this crate? It should be automatic once you've done that.
