DiddlyWinks··on I made a real-time C/C++/Rust build visualizer
Video encoding and 3-D rendering are a couple that come to mind; I'd think they'd launch quite a few.

Yeah, I was thinking of applying this to drone photogrammetry also. Care to share a list of your core software tools?

I haven't done any myself yet, but I'm looking to do some ASAP... both drone and non-drone.

Interesting. Do you think Deno has made questionable choices in the components it uses?
