Extending Shadertoy (& more)

Plugin “Shadertoy unofficial” (unrelated to this site 🙂 )

• Chrome plugin
• Firefox plugin

Features:   extend and fix what you dreamed of 🙂

• Fork any shader.
• Backup all your shaders, import or export shaders.
• Adjustable slider for full control of ‘iTime’ uniform and audio/video inputs + loops.
  4 sliders simulating mouse position.
• Make link clickable. Make key shortcut work even in fullscreen.
• Speed-up button for simulation-based shaders.
• Image preview (to compare what you see with what the coder saw).
• List of your own recent visited shaders (life-changer for finding again private and unlisted shaders 🙂 ).
• Change resolution in windowed and fullscreen mode by pressing keys 1…9.
• Take screenshot width doubled resolution.
• Pause/Restart in fullscreen mode.
• Fullscreen edit mode.
• and more…

Scripts for TamperMonkey plugin (all browsers)

• Andrei Drexler proposes several goodies (somes have then be included in Shadertoy).

Using custom textures (only on your local machine)

• Chrome plugin Shadertoy Custom Textures
• Semi-automatic method for all browsers   [old link]
• Manual method via the JS console

Applications compatible with Shadertoy

• Shadertoy iOS app.
• libShadertoy (Ubuntu and Debian) : run shadertoys from your desktop app.
  Also a simple way to play with fragments shaders on desktop without all the burden (bindings…), with the Shadertoy convention for extra uniforms (mouse, time…).
  Can mix GLSL, CUDA, C++ passes.
• ShadertoyConnector  (Ubuntu and Debian) : interface with Mathematica and Octave
  ( send parameters and arrays to your shader, get the resulting image as array).
  Also a simple way to interface GLSL shaders with Mathematica and Octave.
• Accessing shadertoy database from your website or appli: web API.
• Note that some programs are more or less shadertoy-compatible:
  Gratin, Natron, KodeLife .
• Grimoire (Linux, MaxOS, Windows): command-line tool for creating shader demos

Shadertoy cousins

• glslsandbox     Goodies: clone, camera
• shdr@bkcore  Goodies: vertex shaders, snippets, camera, 3D models, custom models
• shaderfrog      Goodies: shaders + composer, vertex shaders, clone, uniforms, camera, 3D models, custom models
• shader_editor@kickjs Goodies : vertex shaders, load texture, uniforms, 3D models
• GLSLbin          Goodies: includes ( from many base stack.gl shaders )
• vertexShaderArt    Goodies: tune vertex position and color at the same time.
• Shaderoo         Goodies:  geometry shader, infinite amount of buffers, external textures, includes

On desktop (quick shader prototypers):

• KodeLife   Goodies: vertex, tesselators, geometry, fragments, custom model, Shadertoy compatibility mode
• glslEditor

More

Note that Firefox and Chrome now allow direct editing (and more) of any online shader:

• Activating the shader developer tool on Firefox
• Equivalent plugin on Chrome
