Hyprland is a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor written in modern C++. It implements a wide range of Wayland protocols (XDG shell, layer shell, screencopy, input methods, color management, etc.) and provides a full desktop environment with OpenGL rendering, blur effects, animations, and Lua-based configuration. The architecture is a monolithic compositor with modular internal components: a protocol layer, desktop state management, layout algorithms (dwindle, master, scrolling, floating, Lua custom), input handling, rendering pipeline (pass elements, blur providers, window transformers), and IPC via Unix sockets. It includes a plugin system (hyprpm) and a test harness (hyprtester) for integration testing. The codebase demonstrates high craftsmanship with reusable patterns like an event bus, signal/slot system, typed config values, damage ring, and promise-based async IPC. It is actively maintained with frequent commits and a large community.
UZDoom is a modern, feature-rich source port for Doom-engine games, forked from GZDoom. It is a monolithic game engine application that provides software and hardware-accelerated rendering (OpenGL, Vulkan, GLES), a full audio subsystem (ZMusic) supporting MIDI, tracker modules, and chip emulation, a custom GUI toolkit (ZWidget) for the launcher and in-game menus, a scripting engine (ZScript/ACS) with a Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP) server, and a resource filesystem. The codebase is large and complex, with extensive third-party library vendoring (FreeType, HarfBuzz, Abseil, asmjit, etc.) and multiple rendering backends. It is actively maintained with recent commits and CI pipelines. While the architecture is well-structured with clear subsystem boundaries, the sheer volume of vendored code and platform-specific implementations introduces medium technical drift. Several components (ZMusic, ZVulkan, ZWidget, DAP debug server) are self-contained and could be extracted for reuse in other projects.
Yamagi Quake II is a conservative source port of id Software's Quake II, focusing on offline and cooperative gameplay while maintaining compatibility with the original game data. The codebase implements a full client-server architecture with multiple rendering backends (OpenGL 1.x, OpenGL 3.x, software), OpenAL/SDL sound, input handling (keyboard, mouse, gyro), and network protocols. The game logic includes complete monster AI, weapons, items, and multiplayer support. The project is written in C and organized into client, server, game, and common modules, with platform-specific backends for Unix and Windows. It is GPLv2 licensed and community-driven.
