The JOGL project hosts the development version of the Java Bindings for
OpenGL (JSR-231), and is designed to provide hardware-supported 3D graphics
to applications written in Java. JOGL is not the official reference
implementation of the JSR, but an evolving workspace; snapshots are taken
from this workspace which become the official reference implementations of
the JSR.

JOGL provides full access to the APIs in the OpenGL 1.3 - 3.0, 3.1 - 3.3,
>= 4.0, ES 1.x and ES 2.x specification as well as nearly all vendor
extensions. It integrates with the AWT and Swing widget sets, as well with
custom windowing toolkits using the NativeWindow API. It is part of a
suite of open-source technologies initiated by the Game Technology Group at
Sun Microsystems.
