DRIFT: A Million Particles, a Lost Astronaut, and AI-Generated Loneliness
A lost astronaut records his diary in your browser. Over a million GPGPU particles shift with his mental state while AI generates fresh text and voice each visit. Ming Jyun Hung built something that feels alive and a little heartbreaking.

Spacetime in Your Browser: A General Relativity Sandbox Built with BabylonJS
Drop planets onto a deformable spacetime grid and watch gravity warp the mesh in real time. Built with BabylonJS and Ammo.js physics, Hitesh Sahu's simulation turns the rubber-sheet analogy into something you can actually play with. Collision sounds included.

Singularity: A Black Hole Simulation
A fully raymarched black hole in your browser (glowing accretion disk, gravitational lensing, radiation noise) all built with Three.js, TSL, and WebGPU. No geometry, just math. A cosmic shader experiment pushing real-time web graphics to the edge.

WebHeat: GPU-Powered Thermal Simulation for Any STL File
A high school senior learned Newton's law of cooling in class, then built a full thermal simulation in the browser. Drop in any STL, watch heat propagate through voxelized geometry on the GPU. WebGPU compute shaders, React frontend, and a useRef trick that keeps it all from falling apart.

Evian's Bicentennial WebGPU World, Where Rain Runs Downhill
Evian's 200th turned into an alpine scene that hands everything to the GPU: rain that lands on peaks and streaks down the slopes, one wind texture every object obeys, lightning generated fresh on each strike, and 20,000 particles colliding against an SDF instead of meshes.

Walkable Gaussian Splat: Exploring the Duomo di Lecce with Reactylon and Babylon.js
A 6-minute GoPro video becomes a 32 MB navigable Gaussian Splat of a Baroque cathedral in Lecce, Italy. Built with Reactylon, a React renderer for Babylon.js, the fully local pipeline needs no cloud services. Walk through it with your arrow keys.

WebGPU Water Simulation: Porting a Piece of Graphics History
The 2011 demo that helped inspire Figma gets a WebGPU rewrite. Ripples, caustics, raytraced reflections, and a bobbing sphere, all running on modern GPU APIs. Yong Su's port is a case study in what it takes to cross the WebGL-to-WebGPU bridge.
