Nebula
Real-time 4D fractal explorer in the browser using WebGPU
Visit bryanjj.github.io ↗What is Nebula?
Nebula is an interactive browser-based tool for exploring 4D fractals, specifically the Mandelbrot and Julia sets, rendered in real time using WebGPU. Users can rotate the fractal with the mouse, zoom with the scroll wheel, and adjust sliders to map the four-dimensional space into three dimensions for visualization. A clipping plane slider helps reveal internal structures.
The project demonstrates rapid prototyping with AI assistance. The creator used Claude and GPT to develop the full real-time 3D explorer in just a few hours, completing it through what they describe as "vibe coding."
