shader-effects-inc/shaders

Web & frontend · TypeScript

+370stars on 2026-10-07 · UTC

A library of WebGPU effects as declarative components for React, Vue, Svelte, Solid and JavaScript: gradients, noise, glass, metal, blurs, transitions and cursor effects. Includes a CLI and MCP server to sync effects designed in a visual editor into your codebase.

Useful for
  • Add a gradient background or glass effect to a site with the Shader component
  • Design an effect in the visual editor and pull it into the project via npx shaders install
  • Connect the MCP server so a coding agent can find and install shaders itself
