🚀 Ah, the riveting saga of Jax's "true calling"—because nothing screams excitement like ray-marching renderers on #WebGL. 🤯 It's like the author stumbled upon a new toy and decided to write a love letter... to themselves. 🎨 I can hardly wait for the sequel, "Jax: The Revenge of the N-dimensional Arrays."

JAX's true calling: Ray-Marching renderers on WebGL

JAX’s true calling: Ray-Marching renderers in Python on WebGL Demo (move your mouse/thumb across the image) Why, though? Well, I’ve been drooling over this tool the cool kids use, and wondering how I can join the gang. It’s called JAX. It’s got GPU accelerated functions over n-dimensional arrays. And built-in compile-time differentiability of these!? Auto-vectorization?? And you just have to do like with numpy. What’s not to like? Go home APL!
