Move from the legacy fixed-function renderer to a modern shader-based one #38

Closed ultraq closed 3 years ago

ultraq commented 3 years ago

When I started this project, the fixed-function pipeline was still a valid way of rendering and still the way OpenGL was being taught. Welp, almost 15 years have passed since then and things have definitely moved on! 😆 This issue is to write a new renderer using more modern rendering techniques based on shaders.

I'd also want to keep the old one around while I develop this so there's not this long period of the codebase not working like what usually happens around here 😅
