I just want to take a moment to acknowledge several amazing projects and people, without whom PGEtinker would not exist, or at least not be as awesome as it is today.

olc::PixelGameEngine

olc::PixelGameEngine is a single-file, cross-platform graphics and user input framework used for games, visualizations, algorithm exploration, and learning. It was developed by YouTuber “javidx9” as an assistive tool for many of his videos. The PixelGameEngine, or PGE, as many in the OneLoneCoder community call it, is PGEtinker’s namesake. PGE is amazing! Thank you Javid.

Compiler Explorer

Compiler Explorer is an interactive tool that lets you type code in one window and see the results of its compilation in another window. It is the brainchild of Matt Godbolt. His wonderful tool was, for a very long time, the yardstick by which I measured my progress. I even use some of the same libraries he uses in his project! While PGEtinker would have existed regardless, I suspect it wouldn’t have much of its polished experience without being able to learn from Compiler Explorer as an example. PGEtinker does quite alot differently, but you can definitely see where Compiler Explorer had a heavy influence on the way PGEtinker presents itself. I felt it would be inappropriate not to thank Matt for his work on Compiler Explorer.

Emscripten

Emscripten is a complete compiler toolchain to WebAssembly, using LLVM, with a special focus on speed, size, and the web platform. This is the glue that brings the PixelGameEngine to the web and allows PGEtinker to be possible at all. Thanks to the authors of Emscripten.
