Can I really render a 3D rat on my terminal? If I can then I'm sold.

I was going to comment how it reminded me of TempleOS and the author should look into that, but the accompanying blog post explains how it was inspired by it https://blog.orhun.dev/introducing-ratty/

I actually see some use cases for this. It's one of those should be nonsense projects that somehow isn't.

This is exactly what I thought as well.

TempleOS is trash tier software. Its solipsism is only surpassed by the rat-fucking heinous behavior of its creator.

This looks a lot like it'd qualify for a ShowHN. Add "ShowHN: " to the beginning of the title and it should show up in /show

Seems... really good?! Questions: - rendering capabilities of this seem like it should also be able to handle 2d well, or am I mistaken? every solution I see for getting high quality 2d images or rasterization in terminal is all pretty bad. Could this do better than other solutions or is there a fundamental limit being hit somewhere? - What happens with ssh given that this is gpu accelerated?

Imagine this with VR dev environments!

Dude, I spent the last week implementing Kitty Graphics and Clipboard protocols in ghostty-web in the Canvas render. Then I added WebGL and WebGPU renderers [1], including support for Kitty. Then I see this this project on a Monday morning... so now I have to implement Ratty Graphics Protocol?!?! [2]. Really fun project!
