SwissGL is a minimalistic JavaScript wrapper around the WebGL2 API that reduces boilerplate for managing GLSL shaders, textures, and framebuffers. It exposes a single glsl() function for running GPU code, aimed at procedural visualizations and GPGPU-style simulations.

Use cases

• render procedural visualizations in the browser with minimal WebGL2 boilerplate
• run GPGPU simulations like particle systems on the GPU
• prototype GLSL shader experiments quickly
• build interactive graphics demos on a canvas
• manage textures and framebuffers without writing raw WebGL2 code

When to choose

• you want compact, expressive WebGL2 shader code with almost no setup
• you're building procedural graphics or GPU simulations in the browser
• you prefer a tiny single-file library over a full graphics framework

When to avoid

• you need a stable, production-supported graphics library (it's an early-stage experiment)
• you need WebGPU features or broad WebGL1 compatibility
• you want a full scene graph, 3D engine, or asset pipeline
