Following on from last week's GPT 5.5 experiments... Did more experimenting with HTML-in-Canvas to create more interesting page transitions Using our favourite animation library GSAP the PixiJS Skills Very impressed with how well GPT 5.5 can create WebGL/WebGPU shaders

Been testing GPT 5.5 and it's implemented the HTML-in-Canvas spec Worked for both WebGL and WebGPU out of the box Then created this demo with the PixiJS GSAP Skills Hopefully there will soon be no excuses to make boring websites

Experimenting with the pretext library... saw a brick breaker demo and had to try making it in PixiJS. Wanted to see what happens when you add WebGL/WebGPU shaders to the mix. Using bloom, glow, rgb split filters from pixi-filters. plus gsaps physics plugin for the text effect.

Working on an inner shadow filter for the next release. Great for matching Figma mockups and adding subtle depth to UI elements. Still working on the best way to showcase the effect...

We’ve been looking at refreshing our examples. Our current ones are… let’s say… very developer designed. We are definitely not designers. We prefer writing rendering engines. So this is slightly outside our comfort zone 😅

Beginning the performance optimisation journey! Currently rendering ~200,000 objects, all automatically batched. No manual setup required, the engine optimises the scene for you.

Early experiments with PBR materials, lighting, and shadows as we explore native 3D in PixiJS. Still rough around the edges, but the rendering pipeline is taking shape.

New year, new PixiJS features ✨ The next release introduces multi-style text: apply multiple styles inside a single text string. No more splitting text just to highlight a word!
