alt Hacker NewsI am attempting to write a software renderer in WebAssembly because, for some reason, I feel the need to go against the direction this vibe coded world is going, and I want to feel challenged again. I don't know if I will ever finish it, it is crazy, and by no means useful. But gosh it feels so good.
Congratulations to the OP for the accomplishment.
As in 3D software renderer? I cut my teeth on those throughout my teens and the start of my professional career, in x86 and C.
I wanted to see how an LLM would do writing one in pure 8088 assembler for CGA and it one-shot a nice demo (I fed it the vectors for the Elite ship in the prompt):
