Errors setting up opengl, glad, and glfw

support
1

Steps I did

  1. installed glfw source zip
  2. used cmake to create a build folder with glfw3.lib inside of it
  3. created a folder in my c drive called opengl and make two folders inside of it called include and lib
  4. installed glad zip from here https://glad.dav1d.de/ with gl on 3.3 and profile on core
  5. copied both include folders from glad over to my opengl folder and added glfw3.lib to my lib folder
  6. Went to vc++ dir and added C:\OpenGL\lib in the library dir
  7. Went to vc++ dir and added C:\OpenGL\include in the include dir
  8. Went to linker > input > additional dependencies and added glfw3.lib and opengl32.lib
  9. created main.cpp and added this into it #include <glad/glad.h>

now I am getting this error when i build unresolved external symbol main referenced in function "int __cdecl invoke_main(void)" (?invoke_main@@YAHXZ) and this error 1 unresolved externals

PLEASE HELP

Your source file main.cpp needs to include an int main() {} function. A basic GLFW would look like the one in the documentation.
