@luma.gl/experimental

@luma.gl/experimental publishes incubating luma.gl APIs that are usable by applications but may change or be removed without the compatibility guarantees applied to stable modules.

Install the package alongside matching luma.gl core, engine, and shadertools versions:

yarn add @luma.gl/experimental @luma.gl/core @luma.gl/engine @luma.gl/shadertools

WebXR​

From-v10Status: Work-In-Progress

  • WebXR: WebGL-only session, frame, and raw camera helpers.

Order-independent Transparency​

  • ABufferRenderer captures, sorts, and composites per-pixel fragment lists on WebGPU. It offers the most accurate result but consumes bounded storage and performs per-pixel sorting.
  • WBOITRenderer accumulates weighted color and revealage on WebGPU or WebGL2. It avoids sorting and storage buffers, but the result is approximate and requires two translucent geometry passes.

Both renderers leave scene models, shader inputs, command submission, and fallback selection under application control.

Packed Pixel Formats​

RGBADecoder and TEXTURE_FORMAT_PIXEL_DECODERS provide the existing experimental helpers for encoding and decoding packed texture formats.
