there arent tons of resources for learning 3d graphics at one place, you should look at alot of sites and read tons of books. 1.first of all you need to MASTER the fundamentals of c++ ( classes, pointers, arrays, and maybe STL ). I recommend you to read "C++ Primer" from Amazon or any c++ site. 2.second you need basic math for learning 3d graphics, after all 3d graphics following 3d math and physics ( matrices, vectors, etc... ). I recommend you to read "3D Math Primer for Graphics and Game Development" from Amazon or learn from sites, and you'll need to learn math library aswell I recommend glm or create your own. 3.third and last is OpenGL, OpenGL doesn't have window setup and all these window setting functions so you'll need to learn GUI Graphics library before learning OpenGL, you should check out GLAD , SDL, SFML. OpenGL Resources: https://learnopengl.com/#!Introduction http://www.opengl-tutorial.org https://open.gl "OpenGL Superbible" from Amazon.
