Scouting report
Built TextureLab — a 796★ GPU procedural texture tool
assessed from open-source footprint
Nicolas's headline is TextureLab, a free cross-platform GPU-accelerated procedural texture generator (796★), plus Loris, a hand-built toy language and compiler in C++. With 259 merged PRs over a 14-year account, the depth in graphics tooling and game tech is real. Caveat: recent activity is light (2 commits last year) and 75% of repos are dormant, so confirm current availability and momentum.
