This file contains the definitions of the Shader and ShaderProgram classes, which are used to load, compile, and manage shaders (vertex, fragment, etc.) in an OpenGL program.

• The Shader class provides methods to load shaders either from files or directly from source code, compile them, and retrieve errors related to shader compilation.
• The ShaderProgram class allows linking shaders together into a program, setting uniform variables, and managing OpenGL shader programs (e.g., using, un-using, and setting uniforms).

The classes are designed to handle OpenGL shader objects and program management, enabling rendering with custom shaders in a graphics application.

Note

This code assumes that the GLEW library is initialized before using these classes.

It is also assumed that the OpenGL context is properly set up.
