A social posting site that runs live javascript demos in the page. Because of the tight character limit for the javascript techniques, a bunch of neat procedural generation techniques are showcased here.

Old Old page with tutorials for a number of graphics algorithms physics and procgen algorithms- including bresenham, wulines, subpixel accurate polygon drawing, inverse kinematics, perlin noise and others.

Handy for lots of applications in procgen and videogame design

Super useful knowledge for tile based game design
