ganja.js

ble. Yet it works. A bit more structured is D3 who's authors have written cutting edge visulation/layout algorithms for you, for example in support of force directed graphs[2]. A more friendly way to get started would be with some variant of Processing[3], which started as a Java thing and then got ported around, including to Python and JavaScript. A word of warning: something like cloth simulation is to a game engine what a single cell is to a mouse. Game engines are huge, in other words, and again you won't be writing simulations, lots of (internal) integrations. 1 - https://github.com/enkimute/ganja.js/blob/master/ganja.js 2 - https://github.com/d3/d3-force/tree/main/src 3 - https://processing.org/

your mind's eye: A wall of very dense text with little whitespace or structure, and a mix of fonts and colours seemingly at random. I had a brilliant mathematician friend who wrote like this. He would squeeze an entire semester's worth of study notes into a single sheet of paper, on one side. It was impenetrable gibberish to everyone else, but the colours and 2D positioning let him build a mental mind-map. For people like this, if you reformat their code even a tiny bit, their mental map is invalidated, and they lose track of it completely and become upset. I discovered this (the hard way) when applying automatic code formatting tools to the codebases I mentioned previously. Personally, I find this type of thing to be absolutely fascinating, because it's the intersection of many scientific fields but belongs in none, and hence is under-studied. There's elements of pedagogy, psychology, literacy, neuroscience, computer science, etc... It remains an open question how we can get large groups of neurodiverse humans to collaborate on a codebase when they don't even "read" or "think" in compatible ways! Enforcing a single style may work for most developers, but clearly not all. PS: Even on an anecdotal level, when I was a beginner programmer I could only read a single brace and indentation style. After two decades, I can now read almost any style, including inconsistent and outright crazy indentation without even noticing that something is amiss.

y. I don't want to oversell it, but ganja is fucking amazing and there is a great deal I want to do with it. For one, I'd like to recapitulate my physics degree with it. [1] https://github.com/enkimute/ganja.js [2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX4H_ctggYo

compile. Most started with an explicit assumption that only 2D, 3D, or non-degenerate metrics are needed. Very few have efficient code-generation, and those that do are invariably C++ only, but I'm never going back there, even at gunpoint. Just shoot me now, I'd rather eat a bullet than face another STL compilation error that I have to decode from a linker error to do with __malloc() or some garbage I don't care about. Enki Mute's Ganja.js is the only recent GA library I've seen that ticks all the checkboxes, but when I opened it up, I faced only the unspeakable horror of yet another dead end. GA is going nowhere because everyone cooks up their own special version, the terminology is unique and special to each researcher, and most libraries stop just short of being useful. What we need is standardisation around a well-documented and extensible library with polyglot code-gen. Something with expression simplification, SIMD, and both maths-centric and 3D graphics optimised capabilities. Ganja.js is not it, unfortunately.
