    This is so cool. I love this so much. I read the article on my RSS, and then immediately hopped over to HN just so I could upvote.

    > Fortunately though, over the course of Bauble’s development, I had produced a comprehensive suite of test scripts with reference images that demonstrated all of the edge cases and problems that I had faced and already fixed and… No, of course not. I can’t even type that with straight fingers. There were no tests.

    Intensely relatable.

      What RSS reader do you use, may I ask? Mine (readrops for Android) doesn't render the images. It is probably quicker to just review the XML but I'm committed to this comment now.

    Wow. Very impressive work and a very readable and interesting summary. You should be immensely proud.

    Personally, it is reassuring to know there are still people out there capable of doing such complicated and quality work. After seeing my 1000th $19/month thin wrapper over uncredited AI, I had doubts.

    This is both a great demo of what Bauble can do and an engaging description of its development. I'm impressed by both!

    This is very nice. I remember first watching Inigo Quilez videos and they are extremely impressive but this, obviously, gives a little more insight into making something work. Well done.
