Hi all, I've had a rather tense week trying to get my lwjgl 3 library installed in my intellij IDE. I have the library in the project root EXACTLY how it should be, but the testing code this guide used: http://kmilk4.blogspot.com/2016/01/how-to-install-lwjgl-3-on-intellij-idea.html Is kind of out of date, I think. If you go here, https://www.lwjgl.org/download you can see the download I'm using, Stable. I would really appreciate any help to get started. Thanks!
Gabriel

I thought that will be the simplest way...
The problem you are encountered it that you manually download libraries.
It is always better use dependency manager.
In their test project, they used 'Maven'
So if you just clone or download test repository.
And then import 'Maven' project into intellijidea, things should start working. And then later you can create your own class, and at least start from something.
I tried that, and at least demo games worked, and even 'HelloWorld' example on their page as well...
I made a video how I did it. may be helpful, may be not...
