Ray Tracing in Go
This is a chapter-by-chapter progression through the excellent
free ray-tracing books
by Peter Shirley:
There are tags at each chapter
and commits at each checkpoint within chapters.
Who is this for?
If you're interested in graphics and ray tracing,
this is a working example of a simple, easy-to-read ray tracer written in Go.
It is built up piece-by-piece
in concert with the chapters of the
original C++ books
by Peter Shirley.
If you're interested in Go,
this is a fun, visual way to explore the language.
It's fully documented
and easy to change in order to create your own ray traced images.
