Alright so, quick question:

The functionality contained in Graphics.hpp is just a high-level interface to OpenGL, correct?

If so, what would be the advantages/disadvantages of using OpenGL instead of SFML's graphics?

I guess it's easier?

Like the name of SFML says, Simple

SFML is a layer on top of OpenGL. So it is simpler but has less features.

That's what I thought, thanks.
