Proposal

Create infrastructure that translates (working) shadertoy shaders into rust-gpu (and runs?). This would make it so we have a sort of burndown chart a la https://github.com/uutils/coreutils#gnu-test-suite-compatibility and https://boajs.dev/boa/test262/ and stress test different parts of rust-gpu. Implementing enough to flip a shader from not working to working may be an easier place for contributors to start, and seeing shaders work is neat!

Feasibility

The shadertoy api looks pretty straightforward to implement from the runner side: https://www.shadertoy.com/howto.

I'm not sure how easy the transpiling will be, but there is https://github.com/phaazon/glsl/tree/master/glsl/src/transpiler and spot checks on some shadertoy shaders doesn't look too crazy. We could probably allowlist or denylist.

Implementation

I wanted to open this for comments before starting on an implementation.

Inizia esaminando la documentazione dell’API Shadertoy e il transpiler GLSL indicato in glsl/src/transpiler. Definisci come gli shader Shadertoy funzionanti verranno tradotti, eseguiti e tracciati come corpus di compatibilità. Il lavoro è completato quando l’infrastruttura può dimostrare quali shader funzionano e supportare miglioramenti incrementali a rust-gpu.
