⚠️ This project is still in early development !

A 2D impulse based, rigid body physics engine for the web. The goal of this project is not to create a state of the art physics engine. The goal is to create an understandable code that people can read & used to better understand classic physics.

Based on:

• How Physics Engine Works - Build New Games
• Building a 2D Game Physics Engine
• How to Create a Custom 2D Physics Engine
• Video Game Physics Tutorial | Toptal
• And of course Wikipedia

✅: Implemented

🔧: Still needs some work

🔜: Not implemented but planned

• Shapes:
  • Circle ✅
  • Rectangle ✅
  • Convex Polygons ✅
  • Any type of Polygons (decomposition in convex polygons) 🔜
• Forces:
  • Gravity ✅
  • Drag ✅
  • Linear / Angular dumping 🔜
  • Constraints 🔜
  • Joints 🔜
• Integrations:
  • Verlet integration ✅
• Collisions:
  • Broad Phase:
    • Brute method ✅
    • Grid method ✅ 🔧
    • R-Trees method 🔜 (rbush for inspiration)
  • Narrow phase:
    • SAT ✅
    • GJK 🔜
  • Resolution based on impulse ✅ 🔧
  • Continuous detection 🔜 (Physics for Game Programmers; Continuous Collision)

• Debug drawings (using Vancas) 🔜
• Tests (using jest) 🔜 (maybe never 😞)
• Integration with Vancas 🔜
• Optimisation (not a priority) 🔜

The playground and more importantly its code are a good example on how to use the vysics engine.

More examples will come after 🔜...

W.I.P.

For the moment you may want to generate docs using TypeDoc.
