This package displays a shader editor over your <canvas> that lets you modify the GLSL code in any running WebGL 2.0 app. This makes it easy to perform experiments and diagnostics.

Shaderhud is fairly robust at collecting shaders for viewing purposes, but the shader editing feature only works with certain rendering engines that use uniform blocks (e.g. Filament).

There are many limitations to shader editing due to the fact that WebGL doesn't allow shaderhud to glean information from a WebGLUniformLocation object.

To inject shaderhud, first paste this into your browser's developer console:

const script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = '//unpkg.com/shaderhud';
document.head.appendChild(script);

Next you need to activate the widget by calling the shaderhud() function, passing in your canvas element and context. Here's an example for a Filament app:

const canvas = document.getElementsByTagName('canvas')[0];
shaderhud(canvas, Filament.ctx);
