Introduction

Welcome to the Boring Blog. I am Rakshit and I thought to create this blog page to record my progress on the Ray-Tracer challenge with Rust. I have read a lot about how writing about your goals can help you accomplish a lot in a day.

In this blog post, I will give information about the goals I had in mind when I am starting this project. I am familiar with Rust syntax and am pretty comfortable in writing simple functions and programs, however, I have never written a huge project and am also not familiar with concepts such as structs, traits and concurrency. The project follows this book called The Ray Tracer Challenge by Jamis Buck. While the book is written in C++, I think I should be able to port it comfortably into Rust (hopefully).

Often such projects die out due to not having a deadline, so I am establishing a deadline of 15th August to complete the book. The book has a total of 17 chapters and I assume the beginning would be comparatively quick to get through than the later stages.

That's all for this post. I think I have written a lot and looking forward to writing every day.
