Graphics Renderer Made With Unreal Engine 5’s Widgets

Måns Mattisson has shared a demo of his “little weekend project,” which is a 3D renderer created entirely within Unreal Engine 5 using its Widgets system.

The developer explained that the aim is to build a small graphics engine focused on lighting and basic transformations, and he plans to keep developing it until the “math gets too confusing to handle”.
