_Demo with wireframes enabled_

Rafx is a multi-backend renderer that optionally integrates with the

[distill][rafx-distill] asset pipeline.

This month, [@dvd] completed work on the new job system. It implements three

steps: extract, prepare, and write. These jobs are now more structured, making

them easier to implement while supporting concurrent execution and reducing

dynamic allocation. They also integrate with a visibility system to ensure that

off-screen objects are not processed.

[@aclysma] continued work on OpenGL ES 2.0/3.0 backends and documented

[implementation details][rafx-implementation-details] of currently available

rendering backends.

Additionally, some rendering features were improved and added: mesh rendering

now uses an instance-rate vertex buffer instead of per-object uniforms,

improving performance. Rendering features now support wireframe and untextured

rendering modes. An egui render feature was added, and the demo now uses egui

instead of imgui.
