Colours that refuse to mix, combed on water in a stone trough. The Mordant Vault guards colours that refuse to blend. Float them on water. Comb them. Never, under any circumstance, stir.

I built this project to test Colours that refuse to mix, combed on water in a stone trough. The Mordant Vault guards colours that refuse to blend. Float them on water. Comb them. Never, under any circumstance, stir. The core engineering challenge was sustaining uncompromised 60 FPS rendering using WebGL / GLSL Shaders while handling continuous user interaction without framework overhead.

WHAT I WAS TESTING: I focused on two core engineering benchmarks:

Precision implementation of shader marbling under continuous interactive user input

Sustained 60 FPS render performance and zero-dependency browser execution

THE TECHNICAL SIDE: Engineered directly in the browser with WebGL / GLSL Shaders, Canvas2D, Shader marbling. The application runs without third-party frameworks or build-step dependencies, using hardware-accelerated rendering and custom event loops to achieve zero-latency response. Everything executes in the browser using WebGL / GLSL Shaders, Canvas2D, Shader marbling. No third-party frameworks, no heavy runtime bundles, and zero external tracking.

WHAT I LEARNED: Balancing the mathematical rigors of shader marbling with tactile browser interaction required tuning event throttling and memory allocation to eliminate all garbage collection stutters. Finding the sweet spot between mathematical precision and frame budget took careful profiling, but the result runs at a steady 60 FPS even on modest hardware.

TRY IT YOURSELF: The live build is deployed on Netlify. Open it in your browser, test the controls, and observe the render response times.
