Examples

Hello world: one spinning cube, a TypeScript shader, and the WebGPU runtime.

125,000 independently tumbling cubes in a single draw call — rotation computed on the GPU.

Interactive camera: position and rotation sliders driving a cached view-projection matrix.

Blinn-Phong lighting on solid-colored faces with a movable point light.

A lit, textured cube — move the light and pick from nine CC0 textures.

Every built-in geometry — cube, sphere, torus knot, and friends — with a live selector.

Shadow mapping in two passes — the scene rendered from the light into a depth-tested render target, then sampled back with 9-tap PCF.

One shader, three blend modes — opaque, alpha transparency, and additive glow, switched with a program option.

A textured spaceship loaded from a .glb file with loadGlb — CC0 model by Quaternius.

A visual reference example for every function in brometal/shader-functions — noise, easing, color, lighting, SDFs.

30 prebuilt shaders shipped in brometal/shaders — fire, raymarching, fractals, image effects — zero compilation in your app.

Procedural plasma written in plain TypeScript — helper functions, let, and for loops compiled to WGSL.

A 65k-vertex plane sculpted into rolling terrain by fbm noise running in the vertex shader.

Elastic ripples rolling across a surface — easing functions driving per-vertex animation on the GPU.

A moonlit ocean — Gerstner waves in the vertex shader, fbm micro-ripples, fresnel, and a specular glint per pixel.

Shallow tropical water in daylight — eight Gerstner waves with an exact analytic normal, a refracted seabed with per-channel absorption, caustics, and foam that keys off steepness rather than height.

Balls colliding in a glass tank, simulated entirely on the GPU — state lives in a float render target and never touches the CPU.

A blocky voxel world you can fly through — the terrain, every block material, and all the culling are computed in the vertex shader.

A playable flight experience — fly the Spitfire through an instanced asteroid field with an additive engine trail and a follow camera.

A top-down overworld you can walk around — a tilemap and every animated sprite drawn from one atlas in two instanced draw calls.
