Kivy shaded triangle

Shaded triangle source code

This example will create a simple triangle and render it on screen, opengl in kivy is wrapped so you use generally use helper methods for rendering.

the main one is meshes for loading in your points and indices and textures to draw your model and rendercontext which activates your shaders.
