This plugin allows you to run a shadertoy like glsl format in after effects. The glsl format is documented here.

The plugins supports multiple render passes, any number of layer inputs, up to 32 total inputs of any kind, and renders at any bit depth. It builds for MacOs and Windows.

Future priorities include:

• ci/cd for automatic releases
• persistent buffers
• vertex shaders
• sampling audio layers with optional FFT

This plugin is in early development: prepare for bugs and crashes, pull requests and collaboration are welcome.

Download the after effects sdk for your desired platform and clone this repo into the /Examples/Template subdirectory.

note: If you downloaded your sdk from Adobe, You may have trouble opening AfterEffectsSDK.dms, rename it to AfterEffecsSDK.dmg.
