Tracker will take some time and especially since I'm doing C rewrite, which is right now completely broken (literally a start from scratch).
However, the elegant C implementation will motivate me more as a developer as I enjoy it more, and thus will eventually get the project there.
With Rust implementation I know I would give up at some point. E.g., in this type of project you want to leave space for downscaling to very low-end computers, and more towards 80s/90s hardware we go, more opcodes cost relative to memory access costs. Thus I don't want compiler to do any memory safety stuff for instance. Software must have full control of generated opcodes.
The code base looks in style a lot like kernel code and utilizes its popular patterns such as ops structs and container_of macros. And coding style is of course kernel coding style.

Old school file browsing experience :-) Rendered as a single GLSL shader program (except top and bottom bar). There's now 1:1 correspondence between shader programs and screens. Most importantly this stabilizes latency for each tick in audio playback (smaller CPU time variance).

I really enjoy working on this tracker project. When I got pattern editor, I knew that it will become something. It will take at least a year to really nail every bit but it has the critical mass of getting done (eventually) :-)
Very early work on sample editor.

it's glitchy atm because heavy changes how pattern editor is rendering but getting there ;-) music courtesy of 4mat - red sector theme

Moxie seems to be only person in the planet nailing login like it was 2021 :-)
Linear email-link-passkey track.
First time I witnessed this like it should be done everywhere really since five years ago.

Test code I have cleaned up relocated:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jarkko/vcam-test.git
From this i spin off at least some kind of initial kselftest.

Here vcam-test outputs to /dev/vcam and in sequence streams /dev/video0 and renders the output to KMS/DRM initialized frame buffer.
I need to flatten the ioctl interface of /dev/vcam a bit but otherwise this is looking pretty reasonable...
