WebGL on iOS

[harold]

Hello friends.

This article and tangentially related stackoverflow post make it sound as if WebGL on iOS is a possibility.

I understand that no submitted app will be accepted with these hacks in place, but WebGL in Safari on iOS would be valuable to us from a demonstration point of view.

Has anyone tried this (or anything similar) with three.js? What were the results? I understand that the canvas renderer is an option, but a slow one. What information do we have beyond that?

Thanks!

Hello,

I am developing GLmol, a molecular viewer written using THREE.js.

Scientists at Protein Data Bank successfully run it on WebGL-enabled safari on
iPad and iPhone. You can watch their video at

As you can see, it works very smoothly. I strongly hope Apple enables
WebGL on iOS!
