    Your problem is not compiling, it's linking. The linker is reporting that at least one of the object files/libraries in your project uses something named `glad_glViewport` but it hasn't found anything with that name. Working back (to C++ or C code) one of your source files has declared and used `glad_glViewport` but none have defined it. `glad_glViewport` might be a function (declared and called, not implemented) or a static object (declared and used, not defined/created) or maybe something else. You haven't provided enough information, so you need to find the missing `glad_glViewport` – Peter Jan 27 '22 at 09:08

    Likely missing the appropriate `-l` compiler flag. – sweenish Jan 27 '22 at 09:13
