<!--
Dear fellow amateur exophysicist,
I'm excited to see you embarking with me on our expedition towards new
frontiers. It takes courage to leave the comfort of the physics of your
home universe and explore the uncharted worlds of exophysics.
Along with this letter, you will find:
- One complimentary explorer hat: 👒 (limited edition)
- One Exophysics Field Manual: https://exophysics.net/manual.html
- One Exochemistry Cookbook: https://exophysics.net/cookbook.html
And this so-called "HTML file", which is a human-era magic spell that will
serve as your entrance portal. The file is self-contained, will run as-is
on any modern 2020's web browser with WebGL2 support, and contains 4 parts:
1. The HTML backbone
2. The "parameters" object, for tweaking basic settings
3. The WebGL2 vertex shader code that describes the laws of physics
4. The JavaScript code that takes care of the uninteresting plumbing
A good place to start is the vertex shader, where you can tweak physical
constants and laws, and get an intuition for what it takes to maximize the
beautiful emergent properties of a universe. Additional pointers:
- Website: https://exophysics.net/
- Code: https://github.com/exophysics/exophysics
- WebGL2 Tutorial: https://webgl2fundamentals.org/
- License: Public Domain
Divine intervention is possible through:
- Mouse click: Pull particles towards the mouse pointer
- Press ".": Step through the simulation, one frame at a time
- Space bar: Pause or resume simulation
Finally, I am legally obliged to inform you of the one law of exophysics:
YOU ARE REQUIRED TO TERMINATE A SIMULATION IMMEDIATELY UPON FINDING
EVIDENCE OF THE EMERGENCE OF SENTIENT CREATURES CAPABLE OF SUFFERING.
With that, 旅行愉快, buen viaje, счастливого пути, et un bon voyage!
