Quil is a Clojure/ClojureScript library that wraps the Processing API for creating drawings, animations, and interactive visual sketches. It provides a simple setup/draw sketch model and runs on the JVM and in the browser via JavaScript.

Use cases

  • create generative art with clojure
  • draw animated graphics in a clojure sketch
  • creative coding with processing api in clojure
  • make interactive visualizations in clojurescript
  • learn graphics programming with a simple setup and draw loop
  • render 2d shapes and bezier curves programmatically

When to choose

  • you want Processing-style drawing and animation from Clojure or ClojureScript
  • you need a lightweight creative-coding library with a simple sketch model
  • you want code that runs both on the JVM and in the browser

When to avoid

  • you need high-performance 3D game rendering or a full game engine
  • you are not working in Clojure or ClojureScript
  • you need advanced GPU shader pipelines beyond what Processing offers
