Graphics Library

Information

Graphics Library is a library of websites specializing in 3D and interaction.

WebGL (Short for Web Graphics Library) is a JavaScript API for rendering interactive 2D and 3D graphics within any compatible web browser without the use of plug-ins.[2] WebGL is fully integrated with other web standards, allowing GPU-accelerated usage of physics and image processing and effects as part of the web page canvas. WebGL elements can be mixed with other HTML elements and composited with other parts of the page or page background.[3]

WebGL programs consist of control code written in JavaScript and shader code that is written in OpenGL ES Shading Language (GLSL ES), a language similar to C or C++, and is executed on a computer's graphics processing unit (GPU). WebGL is designed and maintained by the non-profit Khronos Group.[4]

From Wikipedia


This site archives how WebGL experiences are being explored as a tool for digital interaction and communication. This site can be used for many things, including but not limited to: design inspiration, design and development exposure, another site to look at. Each archived site features both desktop and mobile screen recordings for two primary reasons: 1. Feature Sites rarely highlight the mobile experience, although it typically accounts for more than half of the browsers. 2. WebGL experiences are difficult to optimize in a mobile environment, thus it is an important consideration when referencing these types of websites.

If you would like to submit a website, you can do so here with the consideration that it must incorporate WebGL to qualify as archivable. We aim to update the site weekly, so please check back periodically to view the most recently archived sites.
