Directory structure for JavaScript/Node Projects

While the following structure is not an absolute requirement or enforced by the tools, it is a recommendation based on what the JavaScript and in particular Node community at large have been following by convention.

Beyond a suggested structure, no tooling recommendations, or sub-module structure is outlined here.

Directories

lib/ is intended for code that can run as-is
src/ is intended for code that needs to be manipulated before it can be used

HTTP Streaming (or Chunked vs Store & Forward)

The standard way of understanding the HTTP protocol is via the request reply pattern. Each HTTP transaction consists of a finitely bounded HTTP request and a finitely bounded HTTP response.

However it's also possible for both parts of an HTTP 1.1 transaction to stream their possibly infinitely bounded data. The advantages is that the sender can send data that is beyond the sender's memory limit, and the receiver can act on

Intro #1

I recently decided that I should start to work on my own path tracing "engine" and so here we are. I will try to share as much as possible without it just becoming too much to read. Hopefully what I write will be of some use to others who might run into the same problems I do during this process. Just as a quick disclaimer, here is my setup which I plan to use for throughout the project (hate it or love it, this is what I'm working with):

Windows 10
Intel i7-6700K @4.2GHz
Nvidia GTX 970 (4GB)
16GB RAM
Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2017
CUDA Toolkit 9.0
OpenGL 4.3 (I will occasionally work from my laptop which does not support v4.5)
SDL 2.0

Common Terminal Commands

Key Commands & Navigation

Before we look at some common commands, I just want to note a few keyboard commands that are very helpful:

Up Arrow: Will show your last command
Down Arrow: Will show your next command
Tab: Will auto-complete your command
Ctrl + L: Will clear the screen

Semantic Commit Messages

See how a minor change to your commit message style can make you a better programmer.
