View source for 3D Fundamentals Series

The 3D Fundamentals series teaches the math, algorithms, and physics (optics) theories and methods that underpin all modern realtime 3D graphics. The way we accomplish this is by creating a complete software 3D engine from scratch. The goal of this series is to provide a foundation of knowledge that will make it much easier to learn a hardware API like Direct3D or OpenGL or a pre-made engine like Unity or Unreal Engine.
