gpu-curtains: A WebGPU 3D Engine That Syncs Shaders to Your DOM

Martin Laxenaire rebuilt his DOM-to-shader library for WebGPU, and this time it's a full 3D engine. Lights, shadows, compute shaders, glTF support, and the same trick that made curtains.js useful: your HTML elements become shader geometry that scrolls and resizes like native DOM.

UNESCO's Virtual Museum of Stolen Artifacts, Rebuilt in 3D with NanoGL

A WebGL museum you weren't expecting to need. makemepulse rebuilt 240+ looted artifacts in 3D using their in-house NanoGL framework and a generative AI pipeline that turns flat photos into textured models. Architect Francis Kéré designed the space. The subject matter does the rest.
