## OGRE - scene-oriented, flexible 3D engine

**OGRE (Object-Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine)** is a powerful, open-source 3D rendering engine that empowers you to create stunning games, simulations, and visualizations without getting bogged down in low-level graphics APIs.

Focus on creating your world, not on boilerplate code. OGRE's scene-oriented approach and clean C++ architecture provide an intuitive framework, abstracting the complexities of Direct3D and OpenGL so you can be more productive.
