    looks like a slopfork of the fairly new https://shaders.com - frustrating for them!

        Indeed we prefer the world where only deep-pocketed entrenched monopolies can do this.

    Nice interface -- I made something similar but for a specific game (Binding of Isaac) because it has a specific way of implementing shaders for mods. https://sublimnl.github.io/IsaacShaderStudio/

    V cool. Works in ff on mac for me. Maybe vibe coded but it's a spectrum. Probably in need of a bit of polish and a better performing example & maybe resolution switching. Basement Studio is legit I have bought their fonts in the past.

    Floating windows are a little pointless but aesthetic choice or a one shot ui. FPS would be nice, also distinction between canvas and void. Video export works great.

    When I clicked Add Layer and then tried to select an image source, it managed to crash Firefox pretty consistently.

    Submitted a bug report.

    That is so laggy, but the UI looks really cool!

    Doesn't seem to load for me except the side windows. Firefox/Linux. HN hug of death?

    The design language screams vibe coded to me.

      As a ESL, what is unnatural in the language used ?

    Doesn’t work for me. Seems vibe coded.
