oh, ANGLE finally has documentation of how much of OpenGL ES 1.x it supports! https://github.com/google/angle/commit/a59430b0ecd8b7bf95c1d0bd7c4037fce23ee2de

now if only I could figure out how to build it…

dear google, would it kill you to let me download only the dependencies needed for building angle, and not also all the entire test suite, including all of the khronos vulkan and opengl conformance tests?

okay cool, fetch angle completed and used a mere 7.3GB… this is bigger than a full checkout of LLVM but okay

jesus christ do i really need to install Xcode? not the Command Line Tools. full Xcode. gn is supposed to generate ninja files, and yet…

big only used by google employees vibes

hey guess what, it doesn't actually need Xcode, they just didn't bother to make their “find SDK” script work with the Command Line Tools. I hacked the script and now ANGLE is building.

…do I dare to try to upstream a patch for that? 🤔
