Shad is a programming language to run applications almost entirely on the GPU.
It is particularly well suited for graphics applications like games.
Before considering to use this language, please keep in mind that:
- It is developed by a single person in his spare time.
- The language is very experimental, so it shouldn't be used for production applications.
- 🔥 Maximize execution on GPU side
- 💪 Strongly typed
- 🔀 Data race free
- 🔄 Hot reloadable
- Windows
- Linux
- macOS (limited support because the maintainer doesn't have access to a physical device)
- Android
- Web
Shad may also work on some other platforms, but they have not been tested.
Shad scripts can be run with the following command:
cargo run --release --bin shad -- run <script path>Examples of Shad scripts are located in the examples folder.
