#shadinglanguage #shader
This new Slang blog focuses on how you can make use of wave intrinsics-- which you may already be familiar with from traditional compute approaches-- to get more performance out of the familiar 2D Gaussian splatting example.

#slang
Everything is back up and running in my vulkan renderer after implementing automatic shader mapping/binding using the @shader-slang.bsky.social API.
It's now possible to set shader parameters by name instead of using the raw descriptor set/write API.

Starting in 1 hour!
This session is TOMORROW! Please join us for a "getting started" session on the Slang reflection API! Registration info at this link.
New Slang v2025.12 release includes support for emitting sample indices during OpImageTexelPointer construction, removal of redundant [payload] attributes, a fix for a spirv-opt bug, new arguments for controlling floating point denormal modes, and more..

Join us next week for the next installment of Getting Started with Slang! This webinar will be on the Reflections API.

I can also clarify the answers to some of the Qs I got in Q&A:
- For issues with non-differentiable operations in gfx, like sampling, Slang provides the ability to define your own diff for specific functions (e.g. to "undo" something like sampling) [1/2]
Next in the Getting Started with Slang series, we have a webinar on the Reflections API. Join us on July 8th as we explain the underlying mental model for how #Slang reflects shader code.

Hi Copenhagen! I'm excited to be giving the first of the Hot3D talks tomorrow at HPG. Hope to see some of my fellow graphics nerds there!

No fancy engine stuff to show this month, but I've implemented @shader-slang.bsky.social and currently working on automated shader layout + binding. I feel like I'm almost there!
