In this fifth video tutorial we will see how to render our first triangle with our Graphics Engine by using the DirectX 11 API! In particular we will implement all the necessary resources to do that, like the VertexBuffer, InputLayout, and also we will see what is the Graphics Pipeline, a very important process that we need to know to be able to render our triangle!
