About

{{pkg.description}}

Due to the lack of native vector operations in JS, this compile target is much more involved than the @thi.ng/shader-ast-glsl code gen and uses a pluggable backend to perform all math ops. The default backend delegates all ops to @thi.ng/vectors and @thi.ng/matrices, which altogether provide ~750 optimized vector/matrix functions.

Unsupported features

• texture lookups (see texture tunnel demo for a monkey-patched solution)
• derivatives (dFdx, dFdy, fwidth) - probably never supported in this env
• out / inout function args (see #96 for discussion)

const js = targetJS();

const hello = defn("vec4", "hello", ["float"], (n) => [

]);

js(hello)

const Module = js.compile(hello);

// [10, 20, 30, -1]
