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.
- Where do I start learning graphics programming?

yep people like this exist
For some reason, that reminded me of this.

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).
