GLSL Lesson 3: Understanding clamp() by Breaking and Fixing Colors
In the first lesson, we learned the simplest thing a fragment shader can do: paint every pixel the same color. In the second lesson, we moved beyond a flat color and started creating gradients. Instead

Gradients: When Color Learns About Position
In the previous lesson, Your First Shader: Painting the Entire Screen One Color, we learned that a shader can fill the entire canvas with a single color by writing values into gl_FragColor. If you missed

Your First Shader: Painting the Entire Screen One Color
So far we have been looking at code and breaking it apart piece by piece. That approach is useful, but there is another way to learn shaders that is often more effective: Change things and see what happens.

Lesson 9 — HSB: When Color Stops Being Fixed and Starts Becoming a Space
If gradients were the first time color became a relationship, HSB is where color starts behaving like a coordinate system. This is lesson 9 in the series, and it sits right after gradients — not as an

Colors in GLSL: A Beginner’s Guide to Shaders and Color Control
Color in GLSL is one of the first things that makes shader programming feel alive. You go from abstract math to something visible, expressive, and instantly creative. At its core, GLSL color is surprisingly

Understanding UV in GLSL: The Key to Mapping Space in Shaders
UV coordinates are one of the most fundamental ideas in GLSL, yet they are often misunderstood when you first start working with shaders. At their core, UVs are simply a way to describe position inside

Are Vector Components Constants in GLSL? Understanding What Vectors Really Are - TUTORIAL 7
One question almost every shader beginner asks is whether vector components such as .r, .g, .b, .x, .y, and .z are fixed values or special constants. The short answer is no. They are simply labels used

Textures and Swizzling in GLSL: How Shaders Read and Rearrange Data
When most people start learning shaders, textures seem straightforward. They are images made up of pixels. But in GLSL, textures are much more than images. They are data containers, and understanding how

Creating Procedural Smoke in GLSL
Smoke behaves very differently from fire. Fire is energetic. Smoke drifts slowly. It spreads outward. It fades into the air. Instead of sharp movements, smoke relies on soft transitions and gradual changes.
