๐ป Interactive Code Showcase
Ongoing Learning & Technical Exploration: This section features my hands-on
exploration of web-based interactive programming, including JavaScript, WebGL, Three.js,
procedural generation, custom shaders, canvas rendering, and real-time 3D techniques. Built
entirely by me as a continuous learning journey and technical demonstration.
Current examples include procedural geometry generation (diamonds, primitives), advanced physical
materials, post-processing effects, interactive GUI controls, and custom mathematical
constructions. Future additions will expand into particle systems, physics simulations,
generative art, and interactive visualizations.
This is an active work-in-progress as I continue to expand my programming skills across
JavaScript, WebGL, and emerging web technologies. Visit the Examples page for interactive
demos!
