Physically Based Rendering: From Theory to Implementation
I'll ping you on Discord, we kinda know each other :)
For others who like opensource renderers: Appleseed (which Franz is lead developer of) is amazing, check it out! https://appleseedhq.net/

What are the best textbooks/resources for learning graphics programming practically in 2023?
Tiny raytracer and the related tiny series are pretty good implementations of certain popular rendering techniques, without the use of an API.

Dissecting the Apple M1 GPU, Part III
An excellent starting point for anyone interested in low-level graphics programming is Sokolov’s tinyraytracer [0]. It’s also a great way to learn a new language (work through the code while porting it to $DIFFERENT_LANGUAGE).
