In this tutorial I go over how to add event listeners to a window set up with GLFW using LWJGL. We add a custom MouseListener and KeyListener class, where we keep track of current mouse presses and button presses, and whether the mouse is being dragged or not. We then make these classes singletons, so that they can be queried from anywhere within the engine. I lastly go over some tips on how to add Gamepad event listeners, so that you can set up your engine to listen to a gamepad.
