# Objective
- Start the realtime direct lighting work for bevy solari
## Solution
- Setup all the CPU-side code for the realtime lighting path (minus some
parts for the temporal reuse I haven't written yet)
- Implement RIS with 32 samples to choose a good random light
- Don't sample a disk for the directional light, just treat it as a
single point. This is faster and not much worse quality.
## Future
- Spatiotemporal reuse (ReSTIR DI)
- Denoiser (DLSS-RR)
- Light tile optimization for faster light selection
- Indirect lighting (ReSTIR GI)
## Testing
- Run the solari example to see realtime
- Run the solari example with `-- --pathtracer` to see the existing
pathtracer

## Showcase
1 frame direct lighting:
