Repository to follow my development of "The Raytracer Challenge" book by Jamis Buck in the language Rust

Primary LanguageRust

The Ray Tracer Challenge

This repository contains all the code written, while step by implementing Ray Tracer, based on the book "The Ray Tracer Challenge" by Jamis Buck, which presents the concept in fully test driven way.

I am implementing all the chapters of this book in Rust, a language I wanted to learn for quite some time, but never got the time or the right project for. I have never written anything in Rust before, so please bear with me, if the code isn't perfect.

I furthermore decided to create a YouTube series of me learning Rust and having some fun, while implementing chapter by chapter of the book. You are welcome to join me and follow allow while I am working on this week for week.

Join me during my development
