Concept

Mission

AlgeSurf is an effort to make the visualization of things mathematical faster, simpler and easier

• The code should be as simple and as extensible as possible
  • If you understand if/then, for loops and equal signs in JavaScript you should be good to go
• The code should have the look and feel of Three.js code.
  • If you are familiar with the Three.js examples, you should be able to jump right into algeSurf code

Vision

Visualize math and physics in ways never seen before

• Enable people who are scientists, engineers and designers and not full-time programmers to craft cool domain-specific apps

Features

Road Map

• Consider ways of using vector gradients as possible pointers toward singularities
• Add shaders, video textures
• Have ways of animating some parameters while you update a particular parameter
• Save updated equations and materials back to HTML files
• Leap-enabled simultaneous multiple parameter updates
• Add extremely basic, totally simple 'hello world' example for each type of equation display type
• Always have a basic API file
  • Along with UI and gallery and other files that use the API file in interesting ways
  • The API files handles all the Three.js
  • The UI files may be written using a variety of libraries and tools

Notes

• Follows Mr.doob coding style
• Follows Three.js examples coding style
  • Functions are functions not variables
  • Uses init() and animate() functions
  • Loads libraries from GitHub
  • No external js or css files other then standard Three.js files
