The Ray Tracer Challenge - 025 - REPL

A Webassembly and Webworker based live rendering REPL of the Raytracer Challenge in Rust.

Link: http://raytracer.xyz

Join me, while I implement chapter by chapter from the book "The Ray Tracer Challenge" by Jamis Buck in Rust a language completely new to me.

Come with me on the journey of learning the Rust programming language, while implementing a Ray Tracer in a Test driven fashion, to have fun and (hopefully) create some astonishing rendered graphics.

Let's study the inner workings of a Ray Tracer, and take a look under the hood of the Rust language, while taking on this challenge on a weekly basis.

All the code produced within this series is provided on github, for you to
follow along.
