glMatrix
|
|
=======================
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/toji/gl-matrix)
|
|
|
|
Javascript has evolved into a language capable of handling realtime 3D graphics,
|
|
via WebGL, and computationally intensive tasks such as physics simulations.
|
|
These types of applications demand high performance vector and matrix math,
|
|
which is something that Javascript doesn't provide by default.
|
|
glMatrix to the rescue!
|
|
|
|
glMatrix is designed to perform vector and matrix operations stupidly fast! By
|
|
hand-tuning each function for maximum performance and encouraging efficient
|
|
usage patterns through API conventions, glMatrix will help you get the most out
|
|
of your browsers Javascript engine.
