This is insane - how do people learn to program stuff like this?
- Joe-Z 7y agoI attended a game development program at the college I went to and we had pretty nifty computer graphics classes. Basically you learn how graphics work on a computer first. There's a lot of tutorials out there and some pretty easy to learn frameworks for graphics programming. From then on it depends on what you want to achieve, but basically you'll have to learn and understand a lot of physics and then translate that into code. I don't know if this is even remotely the answer you were looking for. But if you're interested in computer graphics give it a shot! It's super fun and a good way to learn all kinds of new stuff. EDIT: Just to not leave you without any references at all, here's a link to openframeworks, which I used to implement my first exercises in CG: https://openframeworks.cc/download/ https://openframeworks.cc/download/
