WebGL Playground
An online tool for creating, testing, and sharing WebGL projects. The editor lets you work on JavaScript code and GLSL vertex/fragment shaders (if you have any) at the same time in a convenient way. You see the result on the same page. And you can use arbitrary JavaScript libraries/frameworks.
Saffron
An online service enabling easy and meaningful exploration of scientific literature.
Atom Interface
A radial interface for tree structures. Optimizes navigation distances, increases item sizes, saves screen space, and now use icons. Available for download!
GPU visualization
