P5.platonic

This demo illustrates new capabilities of the WebGL mode in the next major upcoming version of p5.quadrille.js, currently under development. It showcases how Platonic solids can be stored in quadrille cells and rendered using either immediate or retained mode with the p5.platonic library. Platonic Cells Platonic cells are cell functions (cellFn) that implement the filling of Platonic solid cells in a quadrille game. Retained Mode (mouse click to clear/add Platonic solids, drag to navigate; press s (or c) to save) ...

Platonic solids, named after the philosopher Plato, are highly symmetrical, three-dimensional shapes. Each face of a Platonic solid is the same regular polygon, and the same number of polygons meet at each vertex. This sketch demonstrates the rendering of Platonic solids using the p5.platonic library, showcasing both the immediate mode and retained mode rendering of the shapes. Check out the platonic cells example, which fills quadrille cells with the Platonic solids introduced here. ...
