Does Makepad use standard GLSL syntax?

Makepad uses a custom Rust-like shader syntax that is compiled to GPU code. It supports most GLSL ES 1.0 functions but uses a 'self.' prefix to access uniforms and built-in variables.

Can this skill help with UI animations?

Yes, it provides specific patterns for time-based animations, including loading spinners, progress bars, and transition effects like hover states and toggles.

How do I trigger a custom background shader in Makepad?

To enable a custom shader, you must set 'show_bg: true' in your widget definition and then define the shader logic within the 'draw_bg' block, typically inside an 'fn pixel(self) -> vec4' function.

What is Sdf2d in the Makepad ecosystem?

Sdf2d is Makepad's 2D signed distance field library used to draw complex, resolution-independent shapes like circles, boxes, and paths with high-quality antialiasing directly on the GPU.
