-Uses a separate framebuffer (that is not part of the swap chain) and a texture target for offscreen rendering. The texture is then used as a mirror.
+Shows how to do basic offscreen rendering. Uses a separate framebuffer with color and depth attachments (that is not part of the swap chain) to render the mirrored scene off screen in the first pass.
+
+The second pass then samples from the color attachment of that framebuffer for rendering a mirror surface.

-Demonstrates basic usage of fullscreen shader effects. The scene is rendered offscreen first, gets blitted to a texture target and for the final draw this texture is blended on top of the 3D scene with a radial blur shader applied.
+Demonstrates basic usage of fullscreen shader effects. The scene is rendered into a low resolution offscreen framebuffer first.

-Uses a dynamic 32 bit floating point cube map for a point light source that casts shadows in all directions (unlike projective shadow mapping).
-The cube map faces contain the distances from the light sources, which are then used in the scene rendering pass to determine if the fragment is shadowed or not.
