The full story
Most AI-assisted projects are wrappers, CRUD apps or stitched-together frameworks, so this author pushed Claude Code toward heavy algorithmic, real-time maths: a 3D rendering engine built from scratch, in the spirit of the demoscene. PixelForge goes from drawing individual pixels all the way to ray tracing, with no frameworks, just pixels and linear algebra.
