- rikarends 13y agoIts a GL javascript tracer :) plus there is the domain.
- stu_k 13y agoThe name also confused me and I thought it would just be for tracing WebGL. From a developer standpoint it's cool that it's in WebGL. As a developer-user I don't care, it just works well and fast! I would genuinely suggest de-emphasizing the WebGL except in a behind-the-scenes way. (I've bought and played with it, and can't wait to chase down a bug!)
- supercoder 13y agoYeah I agree. The GL part is just an implementation detail. As a comparison would be to say - what if it was actually quicker when implemented in the DOM or Canvas ? Would it then make sense to call it TraceDOM or TraceCanvas ? If the killer / primary feature of the product is speed then it should really be TraceFast / TraceSpeed / TraceMegaSuperQuick (ok, not great names but you get the idea).
