I made a Voxel Engine with Rust (NO GAME ENGINE)

Description

Time to LEVEL UP my graphics programming skills by making a Voxel Engine from scratch using the Rust programming language. I've been considering remaking my Unity voxel rpg game using Rust, this is my first test to see if I'm capable of doing a 3D voxel rendering application. I managed to implement voxel rendering, chunk management, flying camera and simple lightning. Future plans is to optimize the code, I have not done any benchmarks, but it does need some speed improvements. This was made using wgpu-rs which is a wrapper over OpenGL, DirectX, Vulkan, Metal or WebGPU. The voxel project is open source here! https://github.com/TanTanDev/first_voxel_engine Want to support me?
