Workbench
Workbench is a native Qt 6.8 technical-art application for editing Slang programs, inspecting compiler/reflection results, and seeing changes through QRhi without an export/relaunch loop.
Run Workbench
For a zero-install launch on Python 3.11–3.13:
uvx miskeyed-workbench
The equivalent command is pipx run miskeyed-workbench. For a persistent command,
use pipx install miskeyed-workbench or uv tool install miskeyed-workbench.
Platform support
| Platform | Wheel | Python | Default backend | CI runtime validation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Windows x64 | ✅ Packaged | 3.11–3.13 | D3D11 | ✅ D3D11 + Vulkan/SwiftShader on Py3.11 |
| Linux x64 | ✅ Packaged | 3.11–3.13 | Vulkan | ✅ Vulkan/lavapipe on Py3.11 |
| macOS arm64 | ✅ Packaged | 3.11–3.13 | Metal | ✅ Metal on Py3.11 |
| macOS x86_64 | ✅ Packaged | 3.11–3.13 | Metal | ✅ Metal on Py3.11 |
Supported is the intended product contract. Packaged means a wheel is published. Tested means installed-package and native contracts run. Runtime validated means the named QRhi backend recorded a draw in the release matrix. See the detailed installation and platform support.
What Workbench is
It currently ships two contributions inside one document-centric shell:
- Render Toy binds open documents to a Scene pass and a Post pass;
- Shader Toy binds one document to a minimal fullscreen shader consumer.
Both share the workspace, editor, reflection-driven Inspector, deterministic time model, and native rendering services. ANARI host work remains opt-in research and is not a shipped UI mode.
Why Qt, Slang, and QRhi?
- Slang supplies language semantics, modules, in-process compilation, reflection, entry points, and generated backend code.
- Qt supplies the native application/widget lifecycle and Shiboken exposure.
- QRhi supplies one native rendering seam across D3D11, Vulkan, and Metal.
C++ owns lifecycle, synchronization, command submission, resources, and Python
exposure. There is no Python-owned renderer and no runtime slangc or qsb
subprocess.
The distribution is miskeyed-workbench; the developer/library import is
miskeyed.workbench. Wheels target CPython 3.11–3.13 on Windows x86_64, Linux
x86_64, and macOS arm64/x86_64.
Platform and backend status
Auto selects D3D11 on Windows, Vulkan on Linux, and Metal on macOS; Windows may
also request Vulkan with --rhi vulkan. The release matrix separately records whether
each wheel built, installed in a fresh environment, passed installed-package contracts,
and rendered through a QRhi backend. The active runtime backend is independent of the
HLSL/GLSL/SPIR-V/Metal target selected in the Generated viewer.
Build from source
Requirements are CMake 3.24+, C++20, Qt/PySide/Shiboken 6.8.x, Slang, and Python
3.11–3.13. Set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to the Qt development SDK and SLANG_ROOT to the
Slang SDK, then build without isolation:
python -m pip install --no-build-isolation -e . -v
The matching shiboken6-generator comes from Qt's package index rather than PyPI;
the base dependencies alone are not enough for a source build.
Learn and contribute
- Documentation — current stable teaching site
- Authored documentation source — contributor-facing reStructuredText
- Current architecture map
- Product vision
- 0.3.0 release history
- Building, testing, screenshots, and docs
- Native source layout
Canonical screenshots and Sphinx HTML are generated deployment artifacts rather than repository inputs. On a built Windows checkout, reproduce the complete site with:
python -m pip install -r src/docs/requirements.txt
python -m ci.build_docs --output build/documentation/site
Pull requests upload the complete site as a read-only review artifact. Trusted
same-repository PRs also publish that artifact to /dev/; fork PRs never publish.
A release run publishes the immutable /0.3.0/ snapshot to the generated docs branch
and updates the public root to redirect to that stable version.
