PBRust

Description

A Rust implementation of the physically based renderer described in the tremendous book Physically Based Rendering: From Theory to Implementation by Matt Pharr, Wenzel Jakob, and Greg Humphreys. This project aims to explore modern Rust features, and create a performant and stable rendering engine.

This implementation is currently under development and serves as a learning exercise for both advanced rendering techniques and cutting-edge Rust programming.
