Hi! 😃 I’m an engineer with 10+ years experience working at the forefront of computer graphics in projects combining AR, VR, and ML. I have helped build multiple web/mobile rendering engines; crafted high-end VR prototypes for FAANG companies; designed and implemented innovative complex Backend/Frontend CG architectures that combine state-of-the-art ML data pipelines with traditional rendering techniques.

❤️ I'm obsessed with making tools that empower others (and myself! 😉 ) to use digital mediums as an expressive tool. I want to keep growing my open source toolkit and for that I need your help.

🙏 If you use Lygia, glsl-pipeline, GlslViewer, PRISMA, The Book of Shaders, or any of my other projects, your support would mean so much to me. ✨✨✨

🌳 Your sponsorship will allow me to maintain and grow the following projects:

  • LYGIA: multi-language shader library.

    • Pay for the online service that allows for remotely resolving dependencies
    • Pay for a DevOps expert that can improve the pipeline to make it more robust and stable.
    • Bootstrap the Metal version
    • Bring WGSL and CUDA to parity with GLSL and HLSL

  • glsl-pipeline: WebGL/ThreeJS shader pipeline.

    • Reach parity with GlslViewer pipeline by adding: jump flood and pyramid convolutions support

  • GlslViewer: C++/OpenGL native shader sandbox

    • create a WASM version for VS code

🌱 It will also allow me to keep making new tools and libraries like:
