Triangle Rasterization in Practice

A simpler, dirtier, much quicker approach (with essentially three divisions per triangle): https://gabrielgambetta.com/computer-graphics-from-scratch/f...

The reason for preferring edge functions to scanline rasterization is given in the next article: https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2013/02/10/optimizing-the-basi...

I love rasterization. It's such a cool algorithm. Everyone should write a software rasterizer! Why bother? Because it's heckin' cool, mate. But beyond that, it will also give you a much deeper understanding of a modern graphics pipeline (just in time for it to be replaced by AI rendering within the next decade).

I used Chris Hecker's 5-part series to learn how to do rasterization: http://www.chrishecker.com/Miscellaneous_Technical_Articles

He walks you through the math and the code simultaneously, which is deliciously rare. Usually you get one or the other, but having both is delightful.

This tutorial is super good for making a simple rasterizing renderer.

I implemented some of it in rust!
