Ray Tracing in One Weekend Book Series

RT in One Weekend RT The Next Week RT The Rest of Your Life
In One Weekend The Next Week The Rest of Your Life

Getting the Books

The Ray Tracing in One Weekend series of books are now available to the public for free directly from the web:

These books have been formatted for both screen and print. For printed copies, or to create PDF versions, use the print function in your browser.

Project Status

We just shipped a tiny release, v3.2.3, to get out two quick small fixes. Mostly we're very heads-down right now working on our major v4 release. Lots of changes. If you'd like to check it out, we're developing on the dev-major branch. We're tackling some larger refactorings to further simplify the code, address some large outstanding issues, and focus on more development and expansion of book 3: Ray Tracing: The Rest of Your Life.

If you have a change you'd like to contribute, please see our contribution guidelines.

GitHub Discusions

GitHub just released GitHub Discussions — a new feature to host conversations in a project without requiring everything to be an issue. This is likely a much better way to post questions, ask for advice, or just generally talk about the project. Is it useful? Don't know, but let's give it a shot!.

Directory Structure

The organization of this repository is meant to be simple and self-evident at a glance:

books/

This folder contains the three raytracing books (in HTML), and some supporting material.

images/

Contains all of the images and figures of the books. Can also be used to compare your results.

style/

Contains the css for the books and the site.

src/

Contains the source.

src/common/

Contains any headers that are common to two or more books. This is also where external headers are stored.

src/<book>/

Contains the source specific to any one book. Their is no sharing of source outside of the common directory.

Source Code

Intent

This repository is not meant to act as its own tutorial. The source is provided so you can compare your work when progressing through the book. We strongly recommend reading and following along with the book to understand the source. Ideally, you'll be developing your own implmentation as you go, in order to deeply understand how a raytracer works.

Downloading The Source Code

The GitHub home for this project contains all source and documentation associated with the Ray Tracing in One Weekend book series. To clone or download the source code, see the green "Clone or download" button in the upper right of the project home page.

Programming Language

This book is written in C++, and uses some modern features of C++11. The language and features were chosen to be broadly understood by the largest collection of programmers. It is not meant to represent ideal (or optimized) C++ code.

Implementations in Other Languages

The Ray Tracing in One Weekend series has a long history of implementations in other programming languages (see Implementations in Other Languages), and across different operating systems. Feel free to add your own implementation to the list!

Branches

The master branch contains the latest released (and live) assets. All ongoing development, with all of the latest changes, can be found in the dev-patch, dev-minor, and dev-major branches. We try to keep CHANGELOG.md up to date, so you can easily browse what's new in each development branch.

Building and Running

Copies of source are provided for you to check your work and compare against. If you wish to build the provided source, this project uses CMake. To build, go to the root of the project directory and run the following commands to create the debug version of every executable:

$ cmake -B build
$ cmake --build build

You can specify the target with the --target <program> option, where the program may be inOneWeekend, theNextWeek, theRestOfYourLife, or any of the demonstration programs. By default (with no --target option), CMake will build all targets.

On Windows, you can build either debug (the default) or release (the optimized version). To specify this, use the --config <debug|release> option.

CMake GUI on Windows

You may choose to use the CMake GUI when building on windows.

  1. Open CMake GUI on Windows
  2. For "Where is the source code:", set to location of the copied directory. For example, C:\Users\Peter\raytracing.github.io.
  3. Add the folder "build" within the location of the copied directory. For example, C:\Users\Peter\raytracing.github.io\build.
  4. For "Where to build the binaries", set this to the newly-created build directory.
  5. Click "Configure".
  6. For "Specify the generator for this project", set this to your version of Visual Studio.
  7. Click "Done".
  8. Click "Configure" again.
  9. Click "Generate".
  10. In File Explorer, navigate to build directory and double click the newly-created .sln project.
  11. Build in Visual Studio.

If the project is succesfully cloned and built, you can then use the native terminal of your operating system to simply print the image to file.

Running The Programs

On Linux or OSX, from the terminal, run like this:

$ build/inOneWeekend > image.ppm

On Windows, run like this:

build\debug\inOneWeekend > image.ppm

or, run the optimized version (if you've built with --config release):

build\release\inOneWeekend > image.ppm

The generated PPM file can be viewed directly as a regular computer image, if your operating system supports this image type. If your system doesn't handle PPM files, then you should be able to find PPM file viewers online. We like ImageMagick.

Corrections & Contributions

If you spot errors, have suggested corrections, or would like to help out with the project, please review the CONTRIBUTING document for the most effective way to proceed.

Creative Commons Legal Code CC0 1.0 Universal CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT PROVIDE LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT DOES NOT CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES REGARDING THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED HEREUNDER. Statement of Purpose The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work"). Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever and for any purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes. These owners may contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free culture and the further production of creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain reputation or greater distribution for their Work in part through the use and efforts of others. For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights. 1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited to, the following: i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, communicate, and translate a Work; ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s); iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or likeness depicted in a Work; iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work, subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below; v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data in a Work; vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases, and under any national implementation thereof, including any amended or successor version of such directive); and vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national implementations thereof. 2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and causes of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. 3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. 4. Limitations and Disclaimers. a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned, surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document. b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to the greatest extent permissible under applicable law. c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work. Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the Work. d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to this CC0 or use of the Work.
