Ray tracing is a technique for modeling light transport for use in a wide variety of rendering algorithms for generating digital images.

## Project Structure

- `src/`: Source code files

## Prerequisites

- C++17 compatible compiler (g++ recommended)

- Make (or [build it yourself](#building-mannualy))

## Building the Project

### Using make

```bash

make render   # Generate ray traced image (output to image.ppm)

make clean    # Clean build artifacts

open image.ppm # However you want, E.g. xdg-open image.ppm

```

### Building mannualy

```bash

cd src/

g++ main.cpp -o main -std=c++17

main > output.ppm

```
