C++: How OpenGL works: software rendering in 500 lines of code

I don’t think that exists (I sure would like for it to), but until it does you could amuse yourself with:

- A 500-line (non-OpenGL-compatible) 3D rasterizer: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki.

- A “hello Wayland” app written in C without libwayland or anything else: https://gaultier.github.io/blog/wayland_from_scratch.html.

- A “hello X11” app written in x86-64 assembly(!) without libX11, libxcb, or anything else: https://gaultier.github.io/blog/x11_x64.html.

the tinyrenderer[1] project has been on my todos forever now. glad to see the author is writing more self-paced programming projects.

- 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/

There are a couple of excellent resources out there for implementing 3D rendering from scratch.

On that I cannot recommend enough is this github repo:

If you are more of a visual learner, this guy is also a treasure trove:

Other people have mentioned ray-tracing in one weekend

If anyone is really interested in graphics I would also recommend TinyRenderer

https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki

This one is a CPU-based rasterizing renderer

Its good if you want to get a good understanding of what a GPU does underneath

I was in a similar position to you, and I first did this https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki

Yes, my thoughts exactly, shader!=program on GPU. It's just a code which calculates pixel color or pixel position. See for example this: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/blob/master/main.cpp. It's not GLSL or anything uploadable to GPU yet it's still a shader.

In terms of a project which would be worthwhile, I think building a software rasterizer from scratch is a useful first step. TinyRenderer is a great place to start. Looking at the high level overview of many graphics subjects, ScratchAPixel is a valuable resource. Theres also just great information in some of the rote graphics programming textbooks (Michael Abrash's Black Book fully available online from Jason Gregory, and this book is really interesting). The "RayTracer in a weekend" series is also (seemingly) very illuminating (no pun intended).

How to create an OS from scratch

My dude. Your functions have exactly the same names as his. Copying it from a different tutorial based on James Molloy's tutorial does not make it any less James Molloy's code.

I started out with this tutorial: https://github.com/cfenollosa/os-tutorial. It doesn't get you too far but it explains the basics very well, so check it out. After that I looked up James Molloy's kernel tutorials (look it up on Google, it's all on a website). Be advised that he's got a bunch of errors and bugs in the tutorial, there is a whole page on it on the osdev wiki titled known bugs in the JamesM kernel all something like that, but it's still great and gets you pretty far. After that, I chose to develop a FAT32 driver on my own, I can link some sources or my own code for you as well, but it's really up to you to follow what you like. I also found a great youtube series (https://youtube.com/@poncho2364?feature=share9), check out his osdev series, he also has some cool stuff there. And as I said, good luck on your journey and you can ask me in a DM as well if you get stuck somewhere!

tutorial : here

Yeah, I'm following cfenollosa's OS tutorial for guidance. You mentioned that you've seen the same code, with the same bug? What was the solution there?

hey, just in case you actually want to write an operating system, you should check out cfenollosa/os-tutorial: How to create an OS from scratch, it is an amazing tutorial that will get you from basic printing all the way to a command line interface!

You might be able to sink your teeth into something like this if you're interested in real os development, haven't got far myself but it's fun and you'll learn a lot https://github.com/cfenollosa/os-tutorial

So I made a 16-bit x86 toy OS in pure assembly. 3 months ago, I found a very fun tutorial on github that is about Operating system development. I read the first few chapter and from there I made a very simple, extensible (?) toy operating system that could run on hardware (yes, it is madness).
