  • SHADERed

    Lightweight, cross-platform & full-featured shader IDE

    If you specifically want to learn shader programming then https://shadered.org/ is a lot more practical than Shadertoy.

  • cgltf

    :diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside: Single-file glTF 2.0 loader and writer written in C99

    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.
