An awesome post of GPU rendering of curves in an awesome interactive format. Check out that editable-ness! xitter.cf/mattdesl/status/959125…
I just published "2D Quadratic Curves on the GPU" — a short interactive WebGL article: beta.observablehq.com/@mattd… You can click the * symbol to edit code, then hit Shift+Enter to reload your changes and see it updated in the browser. Thanks to @observablehq — what a great app! 👏
