On this day, 12 years ago, I asked on official OpenGL forums for a simple and easy-to-use library to put graphics on screen.
I got no answer so I created #raylib.🚀

![5-panel comic. (1) [teacher with long hair next to whiteboard] TEACHER: I’m supposed to give you the tools to do good science. (2) [teacher addressing students] But what *are* those tools? Methodology is hard and there are so many ways to get incorrect results. What is the magic ingredient that makes for good science? (3) TEACHER: To figure it out, I ran a regression with all the factors people say are important: [embedded list in sub-panel, cut off at end] Outcome variable: correct scientific results. Predictors: collaboration; skepticism of others’ claims; questioning your own beliefs; trying to falsify hypotheses; checking citations; statistical rigor; blinded analysis; financial disclosure; open data (4) TEACHER: The regression says two ingredients are the most crucial: 1) genuine curiosity about the answer to a question, and 2) ammonium hydroxide. (5) STUDENT: Wait, why did *ammonia* score so high? How did it even get on the list? LONG HAIR: ...And now you’re doing good science!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cz73r7iyiqn26upot4jtjdhk/bafkreigzaphhj4mfgfrxddlvdmw47335gnwzqbfqvrnff5x4oovgpf36nq@jpeg)

No-engine gamedev using Odin + Raylib
Games can be made in many different ways. Many games are made using big, general purpose game engines such as Unity and Godot. I enjoy using the Odin Programming Language combined with Raylib.

This is a no-brainer. I'd give it 1000 stars if I could!
Hey! #raylib has surpassed the **26000** stargazers on GitHub! 🤯

This dude loves his craft. So awesome!
Yes, I created a simple Stack-Based Programming Language that lets me describe how to cut and concatenate VODs and the interpreter automatically translates it to a sequence of ffmpeg commands. I've been using this system to edit my VODs for 4 years already. It's called Markut.

I have completely replaced File Explorer with FilePilot in daily use. That's probably the fastest I've ever permanently switched a bread-and-butter tool like this. FilePilot beta is more polished than most people's finished products :)

Been doing some lock free programming experiments, and having a lot of fun - Inspired to make a video about atomics. There are lots of little tricks in there, and it’s not a super well known area.

This section dives into state updates, unlocking highly complex effects—all 100% on the GPU.

I've been (primarily) a software developer for 6 years. I've been automating parts of my job for nearly a decade before that. Never really used C until I was recently inspired by @cmuratori.bsky.social and @rfleury.bsky.social . I should have started with C long ago.
