VoxelChain – An Experimental Voxel Engine

In plain words

VoxelChain is an experimental browser-based voxel engine featuring real-time ray-traced lighting and a cellular automaton programming system for creating digital circuits and modeling voxel behavior like falling sand or water. Built with WebGL2 for rendering and WebAssembly for simulation, it lets users construct and interact with complex voxel worlds directly in the browser. The tool is designed for creative builders and programmers interested in experimenting with procedural voxel environments.

In the maker’s words, at launch

VoxelChain is an experimental tool to create voxel worlds in the browser. The lighting is fully ray traced in real-time and there is powerful cellular-automata based programming system, which allows to create complex digital circuits and model the behaviour of voxels (behaviour such as falling sand or water).…

  I'm building an open-source Amazon▲1,335

  A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing…
