Greetings everyone. My name is Daniel Monteiro. I would like to volunteer to mentor Bilal.
I believe I have good experience to guide him in this endeavour. I've worked professionally with mobile games and embedded/automotive software for the last 17 years, with extensive use of OpenGL, OpenGL ES, WebGL, and Vulkan. I've also been helping around the Mesa3D project and adjacent projects. For the last few weeks, I've also played around with TinyGL (big fan of Fabrice Bellard's work), and it looks quite feasible for the more "capable" devices running Apache NuttX (my NUCLEO F767ZI is begging for some GL action).
