Been writing a GPU powered UI lib in Zig the last few weeks and just added support for Linux via wayland + Vulkan! github.com/duanebester/go…

Comptime size assertion for Quad - 112 bytes for GPU buffer alignment 🔥 Zig github.com/duanebester/go…

Step 1: Code up a GPU powered UI lib in Zig Step 2: Bake in custom shader support Step 3: Build a rough code editor in new UI lib Step 4: Code like it's the 80's Gooey is starting to become more usable! github.com/duanebester/go…

Gooey has a code editor example that I styled to be 80’s retro, and recently updated it to have a tree view for the file system. And all running at 120fps! #ziglang #gpu #gui #ui

Inspired by PanGUI, ran some layout benchmarks for Gooey. Seems like we are in the ballpark! github.com/duanebester/go…

Gooey is now about 250 Zig files and about 120k lines of code. It would not have been possible to build over the last 3 months without basically lifting TigerBeetle’s tiger style doc and using that as the projects guiding principles. #gpu #ui

TigersEye, a TigerBeetle app written in Zig with my GPU powered UI lib, Gooey, now runs on Ubuntu!

Super cool to be on their users page. I cannot express how much better projects go with tigerstyle being my projects’ undefined and guiding principles. It’s was a super power before and will be in the AI assisted future as well TigerBeetle

Have a rough AI Chat app working-- built in pure #ziglang with Gooey! github.com/duanebester/ch… It's based on the Rust/GPUI version I wrote previously: github.com/duanebester/ch…

Thinking about overreacted.io/a-social-files… and github.com/mitchellh/vouch Dan's insight: the file format is the API. Vouch's .td format is close—could it become an AT Protocol lexicon so it can travel across the social filesystem instead of sitting in a single git repo? Mitchell Hashimoto

Day to day seeing more PR velocity, seeing more bugs too. More software going in correlates to more bugs going in. It’s never been more important for engineers to grasp what the system is and should be doing

Something I’m doing in Gooey. Adding benchmarks to individual modules and have setup a CI process to run these for incoming PRs. If there is a slowdown in performance the PR fails. Gooey can run at 120fps at 6K on macOS. Battle tested performance is paramount to a UI lib
