i recently started "drawing" mermaid graphs in my markdown files - its much clearer than writing out the relations between systems imo.

Look, you might think frontend is fine and going well, but today I found a 1.1MB PNG (that could have been a 40K AVIF) in the critical path of an important app. Embedded in an SVG as a `data:` URL. Shipped as a React component.

Thinking of rewriting this from Babylonjs to vanilla webgpu, I don't use that many of bjs' features, and I reckon i can reduce the file size drastically. The javascript is currently around 1MB(gzipped).

I did some generative stuff using WebGPU! I am super proud and happy how these turned out, to a point where I want to do a little series of these graffiti-inspired abstract objects. All composed and rendered with @babylonjs.bsky.social #babylonjs #webgpu #procedural #generative

You are up to date.
