ten-k-balls

Summary

Physics simulation with 10K bouncing balls in your browser.

Solution

This uses Rust and WebAssembly for a high-performance browser-based simulation. It integrates the Bevy engine and Rapier physics library to realistically simulate 10,000 balls colliding and bouncing in a box.

Features

1. Efficient Physics Simulation: The core feature must be the efficient handling and smooth performance.

2. WebAssembly Optimization: Optimizing the Rust code to run efficiently as WebAssembly.

3. Responsiveness and Scalability: The simulation scales correctly across different devices and resolutions, offering a consistent experience.

4. Interactive Controls: Controls to change the gravity, apply forces to the balls, or alter conditions like the boundary walls' elasticity.

5. Dynamic User Interface: Enables users to easily understand and manipulate the simulation settings.

6. Real-Time Performance Monitoring: Display key performance metrics such as FPS and simulation step time on the screen.

7. Shareable Setups: Enable users to create, save, and share their own unique simulation settings with others.

8. Visual Effects: Enhanced visual effects options, like slow motion and color shifts based on velocity or collision intensity.
