Resources for Game Dev, Software Architect & IT General
Created on: 16 Sep 21 13:48 +0700 by Sonnguyen9800 in English
A list of useful resources to learn in free time.
When doing self-learning and searching things on the Internet, sometimes you encounter gold advice or learning materials. In the past, I bookmarked everything, but most of the time the links are discarded after three or five months, either because of me reinstalling the Browser without backups or no longer find it useful. Therefore, 99.99 percent of the links bookmarked are lost forever.
I think this is not a good practice. As a result, I decided to create this post to list down all useful links that I think it is good for my career, which focuses on Game Development & System Architecture. This post will be updated regularly, and the link I listed may be a Github Repo, blog, or a random website. The order of them is set randomly. At the time you read, the links could be invalid, if so, please contact me as I will try to update it.
Any contribution is appreciated!

To be honest, I never tried this type of website before.
A Vietnamese website filled with books, lectures and resources on various subjects.
Books on Shaders (Unity). Also, another resource that may be good to read is the book The Unity Shader Bible (link: https://learn.jettelly.com/unity-shader-bible/). The book has just been published in September 2021, hence there is a lack of reviews and information about it.
Very interesting Github account on Flutter app development & architecture.
A blogger who is interested in Game Dev using functional programing. It is so cool to see that programing paradigm be used in game dev.
A series on the use of ECS in game dev. Worth to read!
A professional blog on game dev. This blogger heavily focus on graphics programming (shader things). I found some of his article (such as this one https://www.jordanstevenstechart.com/lighting-models) to be very informative.
This website is highly recommended by Hello Game’s CEO in a GDC Talks.
