+
+hotline ([GitHub], [Blog], [Twitter]) is a modern, high-performance, hot-reload
+graphics engine written in Rust. It aims to provide low-level access to modern
+graphics API features, while at the same time providing high-level ergonomic
+optimizations.  
+
+It uses Bevy's ECS so the focus can remain primarily on the graphics
+architecture. Direct3D12 is the only supported platform, but the graphics API is
+abstracted to account for future ports to Vulkan and Metal. The project is in
+its early stages but already has a decent amount of features showcasing
+different render strategies, async command buffer generation, plugin based
+architecture, and hot-reload support for Rust code, HLSL shaders, and render
+configs. It supports ImGui with docking and multiple windows, video decoding,
+complex image loading (cubemaps, arrays, volumes), and more.
+
+[@polymonster] has been live streaming development on [Twitch] with archives
+available on [YouTube]. Recently they have been designing a bindless material
+system.
