Ummah Legends

Meet the scholars, leaders, and legends history forgot

What it does

I built this for my kids after realizing there was nowhere to explore Islamic history that's engaging, accurate, and accessible. 400+ figures across 1,400 years. Every one has an illustrated portrait, audio bio, and fun facts. Explorer Mode turns it into easy to navigate carousels. Quiz Mode makes it stick with timed rounds. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Works offline as a PWA. Built by a dad, for families.

    Hey all, I’m coding up a new tour system for my 3d Egyptian work. After the last feedback, I focused on building more interactive content and fx into the guided tours with sound and telling the mythology in the wall art. I’d love feedback with the new version – this is built with vanilla Three.js and footage captured on my iPhone 12. For various fx, I coded many of my own shaders based on work by https://twitter.com/akella and others on ShaderToy, so I’m keen to test on more devices. As the hacker, so the (ancient) painter.
