Realtime Spheretracing in WebGL

Hacker News

I am moving from Germany to the SF Bay Area, so I took some time to assemble a showcase of my past projects. It feels weird to post each one, so I am just sharing them under the "flagship" toy I made a few years ago. It is a special kind of ray tracer implemented in a GLSL fragment shader, I've ported it to VR and other platforms in the past and now got around to port it to WebGL. With this port I've included a scene editor so one has more things to play around with.
