SuboptimalEng/slime-sim-webgpu: 🦠 Slime mold simulation with WebGPU and TypeScript.

I made this slime mold simulation to learn more about WebGPUs and compute shaders. It’s essentially a recreation of Sebastian Lague’s coding adventure (albeit with fewer features).

This is a 45 second demo

If you like a more in depth video you can check out this 5-minute development log on YouTube In it I show an extended demo and answer the following questions:

# Setup Guide (for everyone).
git clone https://github.com/SuboptimalEng/slime-sim-webgpu.git
cd slime-sim-webgpu
npm install
npm run dev

# How to Deploy to GitHub Pages (mainly for me).
# First, go to main.tsx file and enable StrictMode.
npm run build
npm run deploy
# Disable StrictMode before running locally and pushing to GitHub.
