 Levy | soon https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/19593 | 14:35:24 |
 pjals | wait, you can write shaders in zig?? | 14:47:30 |
| pjals | man i thought transpiling glsl into other shader languages was cool | 14:47:53 |
| pjals | next we're gonna see llvm running on gl shaders ;) | 14:48:20 |
| Levy | this is a self-hosted backend so no llvm involved | 16:39:52 |
| Levy | there's also a plan to move llvm out of the compiler as an optional module | 16:40:56 |
| pjals | yea, i know how zig works, but it would be funny to see rust or java or some other language that shouldn't be running on the gpu to write shaders | 17:29:26 |
| Levy | rust gpu already exists | 18:03:39 |

| pjals | blazingly fast | 18:09:57 |

 decipher | pjals: same for java:

| decipher | * pjals: 3d for java:

| decipher | https://javadoc.scijava.org/Java3D/org/scijava/java3d/ShaderProgram.html | 04:36:05 |
| decipher | there's even OpenGL for brainf**k | 04:37:30 |
| decipher | * there's even OpenGL for brainf**k x) | 04:37:51 |
| Levy | not the same thing | 07:45:32 |
| decipher | it's other shaders? | 08:29:49 |
| Levy | no, the rust and zig ones compile to spirv while the java docs are an opengl wrapper | 09:19:58 |
| Levy | so the rust/zig code runs on the gpu itself | 09:20:22 |
| decipher | i see. spirv is vulkan? | 09:20:56 |
| Levy | can be used with opengl 4.6 or vulkan | 09:26:00 |
| decipher | nice | 12:04:53 |
| Levy | it's IR which is later translated to that which runs on the gpu | 14:16:09 |
| Levy | so you can compile glsl to it but also many other languages | 14:16:50 |
| Levy | a bit like wasm | 14:16:55 |
