Synthclipse 2.0.0 released.

Synthclipse 2.0.0 released. Downloads.

Special thanks to Mario Lavin for the support. This release wouldn’t be possible without him.

Synthclipse is a GLSL shader prototyping tool based on Eclipse IDE. It makes possible to fast develop all kinds of shaders: Fragment (FS), Vertex (VS), Geometry (GS), Tessellation (TS) and Compute (CS). Shader development can be done using compatible with Fragmentarium and Shadertoy (but limited to FS and VS) Fragx shaders or by using fully featured JavaScript JSX scripts. The JSX API is consistent with WebGL but in fact exposes complete OpenGL 4+ API.

Why jump from version 1.2.0 to 2.0.0?

Well, maybe changes from 1.2.0 to 2.0.0 are not huge, but there are quite a lot of changes from 1.0.0 to 2.0.0.
The main reason is that internally Synthclipse has changed significantly (API breaking changes). Besides that I don’t want to continue version 1.x forever. Synthclipse 1.0.0
was released exactly two years ago and its time to move to version 2.x.
