Top 14 C++ Learning Projects

  1. tinyrenderer

    A brief computer graphics / rendering course

    Project mention: Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026) | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-03-08

    I got this itch too when I came across tinyrenderer [1] and worked through the early lessons through shading, but didn't quite finish the texture mapping yet [2]. It was fun to work in pure C from first principles, even side-questing to write a simple TGA file reader and writer.

    I'd be very interested to see your tutorial when it's done!
