For anyone interested in implementing Hobby's algorithm in their own projects, I recommend the paper "Typographers, programmers and mathematicians, or the case of an aesthetically pleasing interpolation" by Bogusław Jackowski [0]. It was my primary reference when working on the code for the examples in the blog post, and I found it easier to understand than Hobby's original paper. I mention this paper in a comment in the linked source code but it looks like I left it out of the post itself so figured I should share it here.
