Vibe

vibe (to have a nice vibe with your music) is a desktop music visualizer inspired by glava and shadertoy for wayland!

Note: Your compositor must support the wlr-layer-shell protocol. See here for a list of compositors on which vibe should be able to run.

Demo

You can click on the image below to see a live demo.

Features

• support for (multiple) shadertoy-like-shaders (you can probably use most shaders from shadertoy, but you can't just simply copy+paste them)
• audio processing support for shaders
• wgsl and glsl support for shaders
• some predefined effects which you can choose from

State

It works on my machine and I've implemented basically everything I wanted and now I'm open for some feedback. For example in form of

• finding bugs
• suggestions or more ideas
• better user experience

Feel free to create an issue if you found a bug and/or an idea discussion if you'd like to suggest something. However I can't promise to work on every suggestion/bug :>

Note: I'm unsure if I'd declare the config file format(s) of vibe as "stable", so for the time being: Be prepared for breaking changes.

Start using vibe

vibe won't work out of the box probably. Some steps are required.

See USAGE.md for more information.
