WebGL Gravity Simulation

Deployed application: https://nbody-gravity-webgl.vercel.app/

This is a WebGL Gravity and n-body simulation built using three.js. It is very much a work-in-progress, and currently consists of:

• A JavaScript application that uses the equation for universal gravitation applied to three.js objects.

In the future, I would like this simulation to include:

• A n-body simulation that allows for millions of particles
• A more efficient algorithm to compute gravitation, such as Barnes-Hut. Right now the sim runs at $O(n^2)$
• Computation moved to a compute shader
• Expanded UI

Build a development enviroment

The application uses vite

npm install
npm run dev

2. Refrences

The following sources helped me build this:

• Bruno Simon's awesome course on three.js
• The Coding Train's videos on mutual attraction and gravitation

Thank you to every developer that takes the time to make quality content!
