Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Confused in terms of where to start with framework/technology etc. Need help picking between learning ShaderToy v/s OpenGL v/s WebGL
If you want to go all the way, https://learnopengl.com/ is a favorite around here. You could build a glTF viewer from scratch starting from that tutorial and https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf and eventually building towards https://google.github.io/filament/Filament.html or whatever wacky artsy direction you like.

Best courses for learning graphics programming?
Use https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf to parse the files. https://github.com/ocornut/imgui for your UI. Maybe https://www.libsdl.org/ just to set up a window, handle mouse clicks and initialize the GL context in that window.

I was learning OpenGL and, I needed a suggestion : Which are the best 3D model formats (In terms of ease of loading)
Use glTF and https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf Or, looks like you are using C#, so https://github.com/vpenades/SharpGLTF

What is the best FBX loader for modern OpenGL? (C++)
Do you really have to use fbx? An open format like gltf is better supported, and there are bazillions loaders(I use cgltf without any issues, which is also used by raylib, Unigine and bgfx). It's also a perfect fit for OpenGL.

PortableGL: An implementation of OpenGL 3.x-ish in clean C
I recently discovered this pattern in cgltf (https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf), and I agree, it makes deployment so much nicer.
-
Good entry-level model format with animation
Use https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf It’s the most popular loader.
- Any opensource lib for loading gitf files? Something lightweight if possible
-
Is it worth writing a software raytracer before going into hardware accelerated RTX?
It's easy to generate a BVH for a generated triangle set (like a fractal pyramid or a dense cube). But, quickly generating a high quality BVH for a loaded model requires some research. Use https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf to load models.

How to become a tools/graphics/engine programmer
Write a simple glTF viewer in OpenGL. This is a throw-away warm-up. So, don't fret over the code. Don't do anything complicated. Shoot for a simple, forward renderer for a simple, animated character with trivial Phong lighting, diffuse map, normal map and a basic directional shadow map. Use OpenGL ES 3.0/GL 4.3 API with no crazy features. Don't worry about performance. Use https://github.com/jkuhlmann/cgltf to load the files. KTX is a great container for textures.

Making Small Games, Which Is Fun in Itself
I want to begin game development as a hobby, but I'm unsure where to start. I did follow through https://learnopengl.com/ a few years ago, and while it was a very interesting experience, I imagine I would need to use an existing engine to be productive.
Do you recommend any books and tutorials aimed at experienced programmers with 0 knowledge of game development/design?

Is there space in this field for extreme cases like mine ?
- Game development - Unity3D project based learning in C#: https://learn.unity.com/ - Graphics - There was another user on r/GraphicsProgramming the other day (who teaches Computer Graphics at his university) that linked their lecture series for the entry year of their course here: https://tamats.com/learn/realtime-graphics/ - Project based learning: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki - Rendering API tutorials: https://vulkan-tutorial.com/, https://learnopengl.com/

Where do I start to learn C++ for a game development
If u want to make 3D game, you'll probably want to learn some 3D shader graphic stuff. OpenGL is a good start. https://learnopengl.com

Ask HN: Learn Graphics Programming, Recommendations?
LearnOpenGl.com
Possibly a smidge outdated.
Goes from blank window to rendering 3d meshes with advanced lighting techniques (HDR, SSAO and more).
Heped me understand shader pipeline, so I recommend it.

Is a bounding volume a mesh? (for visualization)
I'm reading the guest article about frustum culling on learnopengl.com and there's a video demonstrating how it works and for debug purposes they have a bunch of spheres turning red or green which I assume means they're being culled or not so my question is if I wanted to do this do I have to make a mesh for whatever bounding volume shape or is there a specific method for something like this?
