# Introduction

Spectre is the successor to [Elixir](https://github.com/Eclmist/Elixir), with emphasis on clean, highly tested code.

Written from the ground up in modern C++ (C++20), Spectre improves upon Elixir in the following areas:

  - Code quality improvements - adheres better to SE principles

  - Less over-enginnered - complexity only when it offers significant advantages

  - Test driven development - close to full unit-test coverage

  - SIMD acceleration with AVX2

  - Physically-based spectral rendering as a foundation

  

Spectre continues to take inspiration from [SORT](http://sort-renderer.com/) and [PBRT](http://www.pbr-book.org/). 

# Requirements

- Only CMake versions 3.8 and up is supported

- If compiling with GCC, use GCC10 and above
