Raph’s work has been immensely interesting for me over the past few months as I’ve become interested in 2d rendering. He has an immense amount of references littered throughout his different blogs and repos, and it has been a wonderful experience (trying) to fully understand the simpler parts of modern/next-gen 2d rendering. I’m excited to see results of innovation in this area, but the fact that he (and others like pcwalton, nical, etc) are making things like incremental updates and blog posts with supporting images and pseudo code available to us is just fantastic. Thank you, Raph. I’ve had so much fun exploring your work on font-rs, and on Piet. I hope one day I’ll be able to move past tinkering and actually pitch in and help, thanks to your fantastic write ups and docs.
