bonsai VS hookdeck-cli

The engine's completely bespoke; I wrote everything from the memory allocators and the font rasterizer to the renderer and level editor.

Source code is available online, and there's a discord for those interested.

| Bonsai | Realtime 3D Voxel Engine | Seeking Volunteers/Contributors | Remote, Global

Last month I posted a 'real' hiring ad (with an actual salary). I got such an overwhelming response from Intern level candidates that I though I'd put the word out; I'm looking for contributors for an OSS project I work on. If this is an inappropriate venue for this ad, I'm happy to take this down.

Bonsai is a long-running passion project of mine that's recently reached a level of stability with which I'm comfortable including an additional contributor or two. The project is largely inspired by Handmade Hero, and the rules are the same. With very few exceptions, every line of code included in the project has been written by me. This includes everything from the standard library to the font rasterizer, the collision detection, and even a C metaprogramming language.

As you can imagine, there's a great number of things that could be worked on, and I'm very open to suggestions. That said, a few tasks relatively high on the to-do list are as follows:

* Make some games!

* Implement transparency in the renderer based on this paper : https://www.jcgt.org/published/0002/02/09/paper.pdf

* Implement an MP3 decoder

* Using the metaprogramming language I wrote, implement a GUI tool to introspect the engine data at runtime.

A few more .. ;)

I'm looking for anyone who is passionate about (or passionately learning about) low-level programming, graphics and/or compilers. If you're just starting out with these topics, I'm happy to be a mentor and help you stumble blindly down the path of becoming an excellent engineer. Working on Bonsai has been an absolutely amazing experience for me; it's literally changed my entire life, and I'd love to share it with other folks. If you're looking for a cool new project to work on, and don't need income from it, let's connect.

Hookdeck (https://hookdeck.com) | Product Eng, Growth Eng, Backend Eng | Full-Time | Remote (World)

Hookdeck is an infrastructure to consume webhooks simply & reliably. Incoming webhooks are challenging because they require a well-built (and often complex) asynchronous system. We help developers spend less building and troubleshooting issues with their webhooks to focus on their products instead. We offer a complete infrastructure to develop, test, receive, distribute and monitor webhooks and asynchronous events.

If you are looking to be part of a early stage team, fully leverage your knowledge & talent, have an impact on the product experience and implement features from scratch then this might be for you!

We are offering competitive compensation, generous stock options and liberty over your geo & schedule.

We are looking forward to hearing from you! Email me at [email protected]

Shameless plug: if you like the development experience of webhooks at Stripe we offer the same experience on our platform at https://hookdeck.com/ which you can drop in to help you add reliability and a better developer experience to receiving webhooks from anywhere.

This is a fantastic resource! Thank you to the folks at ngrok for putting this together! As this site makes clear: webhooks are harder than they appear. Even just consuming webhooks it's easy to get bogged down dealing with issues around rate limits or recovering from bugs that cause missed events! Missed events being particularly painful with platforms that don't offer replay / retry.

Disclaimer: I work at https://hookdeck.com/ & I shamelessly plug our tool for giving you an awesome developer experience working with webhooks and helping deal with some of the concerns brought up on webhooks.fyi.

And if you are interested in webhooks at large a couple more resources worth checking out is the awesome-webhooks[1] list and the r/webhooks[2] subreddit (I just got ownership of the sub and started dusting it off this week after being neglected for the past few years! Please, come join!)

and then went throught the codebase: https://github.com/hookdeck/hookdeck-cli

Might I recommend Hookdeck as well?

Very very useful for handling webhooks and making working with them including locally a pleasure.
