This is a literate raytracer, written in Javascript. The demo, code listing, and explanation are all one part: you can understand the implementation by reading it in combination with literate-style code comments.
This is intended as a learning platform for those trying to connect the mathematical and engineering explanations of raytracing and understand the behavior of the algorithm well enough to do interesting things.
