I built a skeuomorphic, 1980s Retro CRT Television completely from scratch in Compose. 📺✨

Zero PNGs. Zero imported drawables. Just pure code, math, and the Canvas API.

Want to dive into the math and try it yourself? I’m sharing the complete, copy-pasteable GitHub Gist source code in the first comment below. Take it, break it, and build something weird with it.

Super cute, but I lived through the 80's and I can tell you that your video quality is way too good. 📺 😄

Haha, fair point Ben! 😂
