What is a good starting place to learn more about Skia Shaders with Compose Desktop? Or I am not looking correctly or it is pretty fragmented. I know <@UHED82QLX>  has posted some stuff about it. Any good repos/docs out there?

<https://github.com/kirill-grouchnikov/artemis|https://github.com/kirill-grouchnikov/artemis> has a bunch of samples, almost all of them standalone.

Those are some good examples. But I am more copy pasting than understanding. The source of JB compose is also not very well documented. What do you base your knowledge on? Or since you’re JB I suppose you have inside knowledge ;) 

Are you asking about shaders, or are you asking about integrating shader-based effects in Compose?

There’s some shader documentation from Skia <https://skia.org/docs/user/sksl/|over here>, and from Android <https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/graphics/agsl|over here>.

Integrating shaders in traditional Android is <https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/graphics/agsl/using-agsl|documented here>. For integrating shaders in Compose for desktop you can look at <https://www.pushing-pixels.org/2022/04/09/shader-based-render-effects-in-compose-desktop-with-skia.html|my article> over here that has links to previous posts on the same topic.

Awesome, thanks. I'll look into those. I was interested in both actually, SkSL and integrating in Compose.
