glsl-optimizer - GLSL optimizer based on Mesa's GLSL compiler

  •        548

A C++ library that takes GLSL shaders, does some GPU-independent optimizations on them and outputs GLSL or Metal source back. Optimizations are function inlining, dead code removal, copy propagation, constant folding, constant propagation, arithmetic optimizations and so on. Apparently quite a few mobile platforms are pretty bad at optimizing shaders; and unfortunately they also lack offline shader compilers. So using a GLSL optimizer offline before can make the shader run much faster on a platform like that. See performance numbers in this blog post.

glslEditor - Simple WebGL Fragment Shader Editor

Friendly GLSL Shader editor based on Codemirror compatible with glslViewer (C++/OpenGL ES) and glslCanvas (JS/WebGL). Was originaly develop to work as a embebed editor for The Book of Shaders. But now have grown as a stand alone Web app. Thanks to their compatibility with other apps of this ecosystems like glslViewer that runs in the RaspberryPi directly from console, GlslEditor interact with other projects like OpenFrame.io allowing the user to export the shaders to frames with only one button.

gamma - glsl shaders made simple

  •    Clojure

Gamma is a substrate for graphics software, such as games and data visualization tools. It presents a simple, composable language for representing GLSL shaders. Technically, Gamma is an EDSL that hosts GLSL within Clojurescript. It is inspired by Carlos Scheidegger's Lux and Conal Elliot's Vertigo and Pan. Gamma targets the WebGL subset of the OpenGL ES 1.0 Shading Language. Gamma can be used a la carte to compile shader source, without adopting Clojure/Clojurescript for your runtime application.

It forms one of the core components of the stack.gl ecosystem, allowing you to install GLSL modules from npm and use them in your shaders. This makes it trivial to piece together different effects and techniques from the community, including but certainly not limited to fog, noise, film grain, raymarching helpers, easing functions and lighting models. A full list can be found on the stack.gl packages list under the "Shader Components" category.

XBImageFilters - OpenGL ES 2-based image and real-time camera filters for iOS

  •    Objective-C

XBImageFilters allows you to obtain filtered versions of any image or from the camera in realtime. It uses OpenGL ES 2 to filter the images through fragment shaders you write yourself so you can filter your images in whatever way you want and it is super fast. In this screenshot of the sample we have on the top half of the screen a regular UIImageView with contentMode set to UIViewContentModeTop, and on the bottom half a XBFilteredImageView with the same image with contentMode set to UIViewContentModeBottom and a filter [a GLSL fragment shader] that outputs the luminance of the pixel color.

DiligentEngine - Master repository for Diligent Engine project

  •    C++

Diligent Engine is a lightweight cross-platform abstraction layer between the application and the platform-specific graphics API designed to take advantages of next-generation APIs such as Direct3D12 and Vulkan, while providing support for older platforms via Direct3D11, OpenGL and OpenGLES. Diligent Engine exposes common front-end for all supported platforms and provides interoperability with underlying native API. Shader source code converter allows HLSL shaders to be used on all supported platforms and rendering backends. The engine is intended to be used as a graphics subsystem in a game engine or any other 3D application, and supports integration with Unity. Diligent Engine is distributed under Apache 2.0 license and is free to use. Alternatively, you can get master repository fisrt, and then individually clone all submodules into the engine's root folder.

GPUImage3 - GPUImage 3 is a BSD-licensed Swift framework for GPU-accelerated video and image processing using Metal

  •    Swift

GPUImage 3 is the third generation of the GPUImage framework, an open source project for performing GPU-accelerated image and video processing on Mac and iOS. The original GPUImage framework was written in Objective-C and targeted Mac and iOS, the second iteration rewritten in Swift using OpenGL to target Mac, iOS, and Linux, and now this third generation is redesigned to use Metal in place of OpenGL. The objective of the framework is to make it as easy as possible to set up and perform realtime video processing or machine vision against image or video sources. Previous iterations of this framework wrapped OpenGL (ES), hiding much of the boilerplate code required to render images on the GPU using custom vertex and fragment shaders. This version of the framework replaces OpenGL (ES) with Metal. Largely driven by Apple's deprecation of OpenGL (ES) on their platforms in favor of Metal, it will allow for exploring performance optimizations over OpenGL and a tighter integration with Metal-based frameworks and operations.

This project ports some music visulization shaders from WebGL(Shadertoy.com) to Android OpenGL ES. It captures the audio's fft & waveform data by system's Visualizer, and then pass them to a 2-lines height texture that can be used in a shader program (more detail).

shadergraph - Functional GLSL Linker

  •    Javascript

ShaderGraph is a library for linking together GLSL snippets into stand-alone shaders. It is mainly meant to build complicated shaders 100% programmatically. But it can also act as the back-end to a live graph-based shader editor, as its graph model is persistent. Snippets can be simple one-liners, or multi-function source files. Snippets can also declare callbacks, as functions without bodies, linked in from elsewhere. This allows complicated execution flows to be built very easily.

ShaderParticleEngine - A GLSL-heavy particle engine for THREE

  •    Javascript

The purpose of this library is to make creating particle effects using THREE.js and WebGL as simple as possible. The heavy-lifting is done by the GPU, freeing up CPU cycles. Emitters are created by first creating an instance of SPE.Group. It is in the group where ShaderMaterial settings are applied, and the texture for all emitters added to that group is set. Multiple groups can be created, but if efficiency is a high-priority then as few groups as possible should be created. The group takes care of uploading emitter data to the GPU for simulation and rendering, so the fewer chunks of data that get sent the better.
