libigl-course

Material for the short course on libigl. The course is composed of two parts. An overview of the coding style and purposed of the library (available in the pptx slides in this repo), plus a live tutorial session. A longer version of the tutorial, which also contains an example of a vector field interpolation algorithm implemented in libigl is available in the keynote slides.

Part 1: libigl overview

• 1.1 How to clone the repository

• 1.2 Structure of libigl

• 1.3 Tutorial Compilation

• 1.4 Structure of a simple libigl application (Tutorial 102)

• 1.5 Overview of Discrete Geometric Quantities and Operators (202,203,204,205)

• 1.6 Overview of Shape Deformation (401,403,404,405)

• 1.7 Overview of Mesh Parametrization (501,502,503,505,710)

Part 2: How to use libigl as a header-only library

Libigl can be used as a header-only library, you can find an example of a simple application that computes mesh statistics in src/main_solution.cpp.

Part 3: How to use libigl with libigl-example-project

The recommended way to use libigl is by using the libigl-example-project repository.

Part 4: Vector Field Design with libigl

A complete example of how to code a simple field interpolation method using libigl. The source is available here.

Part 5: Advanced features

• 4.1 Serialization
• 4.2 Booleans
• 4.3 Python

Part 6: Coding Tips

This is a short list of coding tips that will greatly reduce your pain and suffering before (and after) the SIGGRAPH deadline.
