spryte

spryte is a 2D rendering library for the web from debuff, positioned as a blazing fast alternative to mainstream 2D web renderers. It is built on WebGL2 and distributed as a small, dependency-free JavaScript package under the MIT license.

The core features are immediate-mode sprites, bulk particle rendering, render targets and shaders. Bulk sprites accept a Float32Array of positions uploaded as is, so hundreds of thousands of sprites need no per-sprite JavaScript. Immediate mode avoids display objects to create, pool or destroy, letting game state remain the only source of truth.

It suits game developers and interactive graphics engineers who need high sprite throughput and low overhead in browser projects. Teams already comfortable with WebGL2 concepts such as shaders and render targets will find the API direct and predictable.

To evaluate it, install via npm and run the provided examples and benchmarks on your own device, since the published comparisons are measured in an open benchmark. Check that its immediate-mode model fits your architecture before adopting it.

In short, spryte is a compact, performance-focused option for WebGL2 2D rendering.
