Confused in terms of where to start with framework/technology etc. Need help picking between learning ShaderToy v/s OpenGL v/s WebGL
If you specifically want to learn shader programming then https://shadered.org/ is a lot more practical than Shadertoy.

How to display a 2D array every frame
https://github.com/dfranx/SHADERed (useful tool for debugging shader code, has a bit more functionality than doing it in Godot directly)

I am developing a GLSL shader editor and I hope you like it!
Can you tell us how do you compare to https://shadered.org/ ?
https://shadered.org/ spent much time on basic editor features like Intellisense and now it seems to be dead. The time would have been better spent fixing/improving the core features like the awesome debugger. Only very late they added a (basic) VSCode integration.

Winning shaders at Revision 2022 shader showdown
Hi corysama, thankx for the comment, there is some truth to that yes for sure. As in, in games you writes more vertex / pixel or "surface" shader and then geom, compute. But I have to somehow disagree in terms of lighting. Sure this is raymarching so geometry is procedurally made in the shader, whereas in game shader it is passed with polygonal 3d model. But the lighting / colour shading calculation are the same as with polygonal geometry (ndotL for diffuse pow(max(reflect(dot(-ld,no)... for specular, calculating normals on fly in shader, etc...) so in that respect it will help for game dev style of shaders. Also I would argue that a lot of animation technique and vfx technique in raymarching shaders are similar / useful / reusable with polygonal geometry, like yanimation based on clamping sin and doing easing etc. Therefore doing raymarching shaders is good for becoming vfx artist / technical artist I guess. You are right though to point out the difference, that's clear. Good shout about shadered.org as well. Cheers!
Most people in this area play in Shadertoy. But, if you are interested in shaders for games and stuff, https://shadered.org/ is a more appropriate playground.

Resources for someone who'd like to have fun with graphics programming without going through drudge work
It’s open-source if you gots some ideas to add https://github.com/dfranx/SHADERed
Maybe https://shadered.org/ would be a better workspace for you to get started rather than bootstrapping from int main() {}

What happened to glslDevil?
https://shadered.org/ this works really good

Container2wasm: Convert Containers to WASM Blobs
I'm using Dear ImGui for my cross-platform code (which includes running in browsers):

New Vulkan Documentation Website
I wonder if using your library (https://github.com/floooh/sokol) instead of OpenGL will alleviate some of these issues for newcomers! There's already a sokol port of the learnopengl.com code (https://github.com/GeertArien/learnopengl-examples), so it shouldn't be too hard to match between the tutorial articles and these.

Meta Releases Intermediate Graphics Library
If you're looking for something like this, Sokol is a much simpler alternative:
https://github.com/floooh/sokol
It doesn't support vulkan though, but if that's important to you you're probably much better off just using vulkan directly since it's supported on all the major platforms.

Why glibc 2.34 removed libpthread
All I can do is give you a couple of Github ticket links where users of my libraries stumbled over the issue (and with different symptoms):
- https://github.com/floooh/sokol/issues/376
- https://github.com/floooh/sokol/issues/404
- https://github.com/floooh/cimgui-sokol-starterkit/issues/6
We then added a dummy call to a no-op pthread function, so that users can better figure out that they need to use -pthread because now they get a linker error instead of a runtime crash or hang. This has since reduced the 'support overhead' quite a bit:

File for Divorce from LLVM
My stuff for instance:
https://github.com/floooh/sokol
...inspired by:
https://github.com/nothings/stb
But it's not so much about the build system, but requiring a separate C/C++ compiler toolchain (Rust needs this, Zig currently does not - unless the proposal is implemented).

Website with Godot?
And I asked floooh for similar thoughts on making a website with sokol here: https://github.com/floooh/sokol/issues/825

I want to talk about WebGPU
It's not Rust and TS, instead C and JS, but Emscripten has a very nice way of integrating C/C++ and JS (you can just embed snippets of Javascript inside C/C++ source files), e.g. starting at this line, there's a couple of embedded Javascript functions which can be called like C functions directly from the "C side":
