  • FastNoise

    Fast Portable Noise Library - C# C++ C Java HLSL GLSL JavaScript Rust Go

    • I believe the one in FastNoiseLite is as correct as one can be. /u/Revolutionalredstone correct me if I'm missing a detail, or if there's an implementation that achieves better quality in some regard.

  • OpenSimplex2

    Successors to OpenSimplex Noise, plus updated OpenSimplex.

    • I'm definitely not confusing the two, there are two versions (and the author of which, btw, is posting in this thread). Please don't do this again.

  • 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.
