We built this 3D Renderer project purely for fun, without relying on APIs or libraries like OpenGL or WebGL to access the GPU and utilize more advanced techniques. Our goal was to create a simple, low-abstraction, and dependency-free Java-based renderer.
The downside is that it's pretty slow and unoptimized. The upside of this is that we have a better understanding of graphics from the ground up and we'll feel more comfortable using OpenGL or any other similar tool in the future. It also serves as an excellent application for some of the linear algebra and multivariable caluclus concepts we've learned.
