With cubesat swarms like this I gonna need more space and soon.

Cubemaps are done and I have some time left to reflect on the code.

Something shadowy is going on here...

Motion is crucial for depth perception.

This livecoding thing is nice. Needs more rendering backends though.

12 hours to setup devices and presentation stuff.
2 hours to setup shader pipeline.

I'm getting better at this.

New vulkan starter lib is getting more useful.

STM wrapped buffer didn't cut it. Had to fall back to MVars due to GPU buffers have to be either updated or discarded, depending on new collection length.

I don't like this. But the collections are persistent and don't have to be emitted every frame.

B-side

Added staged buffers and a few more wrappers to draw them.

It appears that coherent/staged is a more useful separation than vertex/index/uniform/etc.

Having a storage type kind is fun, but breaks collections-of-collections flow, so more typeclasses and singletons are in order.

It's a first time I used units to catch errors. Good: converting SDL ticks to SI and "deconverting" kilometers to scene space. Bad: I still managed to put Sun mass instead of Earth's and got wild orbital periods.
