To combat fragmentation, code duplication, and slow runtime compilation, Blender is migrating to its own custom solution: the Blender Shading Language (BSL). This presentation explores the architectural evolution of Blender's shader pipeline, the design principles of BSL, and how a custom, lightning-fast preprocessor solved the performance pitfalls of vendor shader compilers. – Learn more about Blender Conference 2026 at https://conference.blender.org/2026/ Thu, 24 Sep 2026 16:39:00 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://video.blender.org https://video.blender.org/lazy-static/avatars/83e44c73-9c22-453c-a454-c4efe225fd4d.png https://video.blender.org/videos/watch/64cb6ee5-9bdf-480a-a401-5cacf9e6c708 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://video.blender.org/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
