Pygfx (py-graphics) is built on WebGPU, enabling superior performance and reliability compared to OpenGL-based solutions. It is designed for simplicity and versatility: with its modular architecture, you can effortlessly assemble graphical scenes for diverse applications, from scientific visualization to video game rendering.
A remote frame-buffer for Jupyter. Enables Jupyter support in RenderCanvas.

## 🚀 Mission

+
## <iclass='fas'></i> Mission
34
93
35
94
We are dedicated to bring powerful and reliable visualization to the Python world.
36
95
We believe that WebGPU is the future for graphics and bring it to Python with the wgpu-py library. On top of that, we build Pygfx: a modern, versatile, and Pythonic rendering engine.
96
+
37
97
Pygfx provides a basis on top of which a multitude of visualizations become possible. From applications to libraries, from games to plotting.
98
+
Pygfx is expressive in what you can do with it, but does not try hard to reduce the number of code-lines. We deliberately leave higher-level (domain specific) API's to downstream libraries.

The following notable projects build on top of Pygfx or wgpu-py:
Pygfx and wgpu are open source and free to use. To develop these projects we rely on funding from our sponsors. The more groups "chip in", the more time we can spend on moving the projects forwards. Recurring funding is especially welcome. [Learn more ...](sponsor.html)

Funds for Pygfx are primarily used to fund our developer time. This includes the work on Pygfx itself, keeping wgpu-py up-to-date with the development of WebGPU, and maintaining other dependencies like the render canvas.

Surplus funds are used as a buffer (to create some runway), onboarding additional developers, and maybe organize an event.
