A 9k Forest: Node-Based 3D Assets in WebGPU

Sedon wires a node graph into a real-time WebGPU renderer to grow a whole forest from about 9k of data. Rayleigh skies, rippling water, runtime LOD terrain, and a saved scene that fits in a URL. The twist: nearly every shader and pipeline was vibe coded, no engine involved.

SuperSplat: Editing 3D Gaussian Splats in the Browser

A few million ellipsoids that snap into a photoreal coffee shop, an ant, the Moon. SuperSplat is a browser-based editor for cleaning up 3D Gaussian splats, with GPU-accelerated selection, unlimited undo, and a streamed LOD format for massive scenes. Open source, nothing to install.

Smooothy: A Slider Built to Sit Under Your WebGL Scene

Federico Valla's Smooothy is a tiny TypeScript slider that exists because every other carousel synced badly with WebGL. Drag through Toast and Fish but no Head while current, target, and parallaxValues tick out in real time, ready to feed your shader uniforms.

Lore: Hand-Rolled WebGL by darkroom.engineering

Lore's landing page is the rare marketing site that earns its WebGL canvas. darkroom.engineering, the studio behind Lenis, wires GL into GSAP timelines for a logo-forward hero that is small, sharp, and worth reading the source of.

NullGraph: A Data-Oriented WebGPU Rendering Framework

Vikas Kumar Singh's NullGraph drops the scene graph and streams flat ArrayBuffers straight to the GPU. Strange attractors, Hopf fibrations, curl-noise fluids, and a test engine that lets you swap memory layouts mid-flight to watch the frame times move.

ChartGPU: WebGPU-Powered Charts That Hold Up at a Million Points

A WebGPU charting library that pans and zooms a million points without blinking. LTTB downsampling runs as a compute shader, hit-testing is GPU-accelerated, and each series ships as a single instanced draw. Line, area, bar, scatter, pie, candlestick. 97% TypeScript, 3% WGSL, MIT-licensed.

WebPhysics: A WebGPU Implementation of Augmented Vertex Block Descent

Jure Triglav ports the 2025 AVBD solver onto the GPU: stacks that settle instead of jitter, piles with opinions about mass, and an LBVH broad phase feeding colored primal sweeps in parallel. The reference demo is CPU-serial. This one runs in a browser tab.

Mapillary: A Street View Stitched Together by Strangers

Hundreds of millions of crowdsourced street photos, blended into a navigable 3D world you can pan through like a panorama. Built on mapillary-js, an open source TypeScript and WebGL library by Oscar Lorentzon. Point clouds, undistorted camera frames, and an S2-cell navigation graph under the hood.

Lume: GPU-Powered 3D Scenes Written as Plain HTML Elements

Lume lets you build WebGL-powered 3D scenes using custom HTML elements. Lights, shadows, glTF models, and reactive updates, all in markup that works with React, Vue, Svelte, or vanilla HTML. No canvas wrangling required.

Troika: The Three.js Framework That Solved WebGL Text Rendering

Troika parses font files directly, generates SDF glyphs in a web worker, and patches any Three.js material with the right shader code. The result is crisp, antialiased 3D text that handles kerning, ligatures, and RTL layout without dropping frames.

gpu-curtains: A WebGPU 3D Engine That Syncs Shaders to Your DOM

Martin Laxenaire rebuilt his DOM-to-shader library for WebGPU, and this time it's a full 3D engine. Lights, shadows, compute shaders, glTF support, and the same trick that made curtains.js useful: your HTML elements become shader geometry that scrolls and resizes like native DOM.

Embedding Atlas: Apple's Open-Source Tool for Exploring Millions of Vectors in Your Browser

Apple's Embedding Atlas renders millions of embedding points interactively using WebGPU (with WebGL 2 fallback), Wasm-compiled UMAP, and density-based clustering that runs in milliseconds. Open source, with React, Svelte, Jupyter, and CLI support.

curtains.js: DOM-Driven WebGL Textured Planes

Martin Laxenaire's lightweight WebGL library that converts HTML elements into shader-driven textured planes positioned exactly where your CSS says they should be. Write normal markup, add shaders, skip the coordinate math.
