While I was working, I was not able to find a good post regarding development environment for mesa, so I decided to write a post myself. Mesa is written in C for most part and uses git for version control and autotools to build.
I have been working on video post processing on mesa for the past two weeks, So I thought I could also write about it and it might help someone who wants to contribute to mesa. Hence, I will be doing a series of post regarding mesa, linus grahics stack ,video processing and more.
It’s been 2 months since my last post. A lot happened during these 2 months form GSoC rejection to involvement in mesa, not to forget the end-sems in between.
I made my first contribution to FOSS to gnome-maps. The feeling that the code you wrote reaches hundreds of thousands of people is great. It makes me feel proud even when I write about it.
Recently I moved from ubuntu 15.10 to fedora 23, which was first time I was trying a new OS which was not based on Debian. Installing fedora was new experience as fedora had a installer which a lot different from the debian based distros. This is very good walk through to install fedora 23 which I followed.
