Hello everyone.
The Mixed Reality Forums here are no longer being used or maintained.
There are a few other places we would like to direct you to for support, both from Microsoft and from the community.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality.
If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers, or in our Microsoft Tech Communities forums at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/mixed-reality/ct-p/MicrosoftMixedReality.
And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.

HoloLens runs UWP apps, so there's only D3D and no OpenGL, right? Or can we get OpenGL-based stuff running as 3D apps on the HL? WebGL in IE/Edge app rendering as flat window doesn't count. 
I assume ANGLE could be an option but has anyone actually tried it?

Angle is an option, but there's definitely some work that has to be done (to Angle) to get there. It helps us a ton to know the level of interest in supporting specific techs.

Well, you can be sure there are big companies out there who have a long and large investment in OpenGL. We have a few of those clients at hand.
LMK if you want to have an in-depth chat about that.

DirecDraw as well to keep it simple.

Shameless Plug of hashtag.
Especially if it's all about #UX right? TX SILVER
Huge level of interest here. OpenGL 3.x support would save me a mountain of time considering my D3D12 rendering backend is buggy and D3D11.x is inexistent.
Managed Direct X 12.1-13.0 D3DHDX

@ChimeraScorn With current version can we write a Holographic app in Opengl using Angle? I was going through the VS template code of the Holographic App but was unable to figure out how to integrate Angle to use opengl for rendering. Is it possible to do it now? and if so can you point me to some documents which explains this if there is one. Thank You.
