Reading this makes me want to fire up Processing [1] again. I remember spending hours and days with it in my early twenties. The immediacy of writing a few simple commands, hitting "Run" and seeing graphical output is still unsurpassed and created an almost addictive creative feedback loop that I haven't seen anywhere else yet.

I built a visual editor in Processing (a Java tool for people who like making things look cool), so I could easily map out the store and export the resulting graph. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

As an autodidact who never learned this stuff at school/uni, his lectures are what made linear algebra really click for me. I can only recommend them to anyone who wants to get a visual intuition on the fundamentals of LA. What also helped me as a visual learner was to program/setup tiny experiments in Processing[1] and GeoGebra Classic[2]. - [1] https://processing.org. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

I have been following HyperCard clones for years. It would take me some time to gather what I found, but the short answer is to download a Mac OS 9 emulator (it works) and load up HyperCard 2.4.1 and have fun.

I previously integrated bgfx [1], which allows you to write graphics code and shaders once and supports consoles, with SDL2 stack and Swift [2]. It was quite a nice experience, especially for someone who had never worked with any of these tools before. I'm excited for SDL3 as it introduces console abstractions, eliminating the need for additional dependencies for the GPU API, especially for someone who casually... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

BGFX: Pretty mature and easy to use with many backends. Source: about 3 years ago

The primary improvement we've heard about in over a decade sounded like a single engineer's side project to integrate the open-source BGFX library migrating the engine from Dx9 to Dx11. (In addition, the macOS beta was just using CrossOver with fixes for any bugs with the Windows compatibility layer.). Source: almost 4 years ago

There are still things like BGFX in active development and use. I think the bigger issue is that folks can never really agree on how things should be abstracted for a higher level API. Source: almost 4 years ago

I would use the native API for each platform with something like bgfx. Source: about 4 years ago
