gl-matrix is a versatile and high-performance JavaScript / TypeScript library for vector and matrix operations, optimized for real-time 3D graphics APIs such as WebGL and WebGPU.

Javascript has evolved into a language capable of handling realtime 3D graphics and computationally intensive tasks such as physics simulations. These types of applications demand high performance vector and matrix math which is something that Javascript doesn't provide by default. gl-matrix to the rescue!

gl-matrix is designed to perform vector and matrix operations stupidly fast! By hand-tuning each function for maximum performance and encouraging efficient usage patterns through API conventions gl-matrix will help you get the most out of your Javascript engine in the browser or preferred Javascript runtime.

What's new in 4.0?

gl-matrix 4.0 is the result of a lot of excellent feedback from the community, and features:

• Revamped and consistent API (not backward compatible with 3.x, see: Classic API)
• Even more optimizations!
• Written in Typescript.
• A cleaner code base, broken up by type.
• A more complete unit testing suite.
