Maybe someone has any good idea/experience if it is possible to animate 2D array in C++ without touching openGL? Suppose I have 2D array 100x100 and it changes its values on every iteration, and these values could be indicated as color. Any advices appreciated, for me it would be "nice to have" auxiliary function, so would like to avoid learning opengl for the time being if it is possible.
Alternatively, you don't need to work directly with system-level libraries/APIs, you can use something higher-level and fairly beginner-friendly like SFML (multimedia library). https://www.sfml-dev.org/
