Overview

This is the demo project for GDQuest's first Godot shader tutorial, an introduction to shader programming built for Godot 3. Using a 2D water effect, it walks through vertex and fragment shaders, vertex shader animation, uniforms, and a UI widget that controls the shader from GDScript, with separate start and end projects so you can follow along.

The link in the video description redirects to the gdquest-demos/godot-3-demos repository, where the files sit in the 2018/06-16-intro-to-shaders-2d-water subfolder under the MIT license. It is a clear first step for anyone who has never written a Godot shader.

What You Can Learn
