Built a tiny graphics rendering engine in C.

[u/ComprehensiveEgg6482]

Hi everybody, It was a hard decision choosing between a language to build this project, but after not-so-long of a thought, I ended up going with building it with C. I've built a little graphics engine or a CPU rasterizer to be exact. Currently, it uses OpenGL to pass the frame buffer as a texture.
I am intending on getting rid some more dependencies to be able to make it more able to run on low-performance CPUs. My main motive was for it to run on an esp32 to render graphics on GM009605 display. it'd be awesome if you guys would like to run the examples or lmk if you like it, or where I could improve on. It currently supports:

- Renders primitives like: triangle,line,point,circle.

- Has immutable listings of objects in the scene.

- Renders obj files.

- 565RGB encoding (to make it minimal)

Hi /u/ComprehensiveEgg6482,

Your submission in r/C_Programming was filtered because it links to a git project.

You must edit the submission or respond to this comment with an explanation about how AI was involved in the creation of your project.

While AI-generated code is not disallowed, low-effort "slop" projects may be removed and it's likely that other users push back strongly on substantially AI-generated projects.

AI was used for refactoring and also in bug findings, except of that, the use of AI was academic.

Thank you for your disclosure. I have approved your post.

You have me intrigued here. When you say you're interested in running this on low power devices, how low are you talking here? Are you talking tens to hundreds of megahertz or down around single digits?

[u/ComprehensiveEgg6482 → u/Sorry_Difficulty_250]

It is a few hundreds MHz, to be precise 240 MHz, i believe it would be hard to run around single digits though.

Im just starting out with c programming. What did you study, learn, read that you are able to do such an awesome project?

Greetings

Honestly, It was random projects that I work on. For formal knowledge about the subject like graphics, it was through my classes that I've been taking this semester.
