Julia fractals in Rust wasm

Posted 2019-07-26 19:12. Tagged rust, fractal, wasm, demo, javascript.

I like to write programs to render fractals, and especially Julia set fractals. I also like the Rust programming language. Among other advantages it happens to be great for compiling to wasm, the new format for executing code in a web browser. And I like to code stuff for the webb. So how come I haven’t written a wasm Julia renderer in Rust yet?

Well, now I have.

WebAssembly seems to be all the rage currently. While I certainly wouldn’t mind replacing all javascript code with rust, that seems impractical for things running in the browser, as everything about the DOM and event handling still have to go through javascript bindings. As it is a good thing to keep javascript minimal for progressive enhancement, that makes the code contain very little more than event bindings anyway.

I’m on the scene

Apparently, I’m on the scene. I went to deadline harakiri to take a look, mainly since elmindreda, Dicander, Psychad and some other people reawoke my interest in 3d graphics and the demo scene in general.

Update 2006-03-07 10:07: Thou shalt not overwrite your files before they have entered the state of backup. Since I did just that, causing the demo to be null and void for a while, I have now rewritten the demo from biological memory.
