  • rust-gpu

    🐉 Making Rust a first-class language and ecosystem for GPU shaders 🚧

  • Project mention: Vcc – The Vulkan Clang Compiler | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-09

    Sounds cool, but this requires yet another language to learn[0]. As someone who only has limited knowledge in this space, could someone tell me how comparable is the compute functionality of rust-gpu[1], where I can just write rust?

  • luminance-rs

    Type-safe, type-level and stateless Rust graphics framework

  • Project mention: Introducing posh: Type-Safe Graphics Programming in Rust | /r/rust | 2023-06-04

    gives me same vibes as https://github.com/phaazon/luminance-rs

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • compute-shader-101

    Sample code for compute shader 101 training

  • strolle

    Experimental real-time renderer with support for dynamic global illumination

  • shame

    A shader EDSL for writing render and compute pipelines in rust

  • bevy_smud

    Sdf 2d shape renderer for Bevy

  • pilka

    Another live-coding tool for creating shader demos, Vulkan+Wgpu powered.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • wrend

    A framework-agnostic Rust/WASM + WebGL2 Rendering library, compatible with calling from both Rust and JavaScript on the web.

  • sdf-viewer

    A fast and cross-platform Signed Distance Function (SDF) viewer, easily integrated with your SDF library.

  • shadertoy-rs

    A desktop client for Shadertoy written in Rust

  • Project mention: Is it technically possible for emulators to apply shaders in different bgs? | /r/emulation | 2023-05-23

    Then, as you probably noticed, I also added my not-emulable-games-but-id-still-like-to-have-them-in-there-and-its-pretty. I added PS4, PS5, Switch games manually. Thankfully I don't buy enough of them these days that it becomes a problem to sync. As for launching, well, the TV is plugged to them. Still, they needed to be launchable (otherwise Launchbox is unhappy). What I did was fork shadertoy-rs (https://github.com/fmenozzi/shadertoy-rs). to add capabilities for randomized shaders and displaying a title. All these shaders are animated, look great in fullscreen and serve as a nice little distraction as you start up whatever console. shadertoy-rs also closes on any input, so it's easy to get back to the list. Need to also add automatically the author and the shader name for more flair. The current list of whitelisted shaders that I have on random are (beware, some of them might be a bit cpu intensive):

  • rusterizer

    Bare-bones software renderer written in Rust

  • compaster

    Rasterization using compute shaders

  • sdf-playground

    Signed distance functions + Rust (CPU & GPU) = ❤️❤️

  • Project mention: Trace Me a River: Computing stuff on GPU using Rust; live coding, video | code::dive 2023 | /r/rust | 2023-12-07
