David.li Web Toys

David.li is a compact shelf of interactive web toys: fluid paint, particles, vortexes, filtering, waves, and other visual experiments waiting behind simple links. It feels less like a portfolio presentation and more like a drawer of digital contraptions somebody forgot to label.

What is David.li Web Toys?

David.li keeps its stage directions minimal. The front page is a run of project links, moving from fluid paint and particles to vortex spheres, Fourier filtering, and an ocean-wave simulation. That modest doorway is part of the charm: choose a title that sounds like a science-fair exhibit, then see what kind of browser contraption is tucked behind it. The collection’s common thread is visual play with physical or mathematical ideas, but the projects are deliberately separate little worlds rather than one large app. Pick the title that makes you most curious and let the next page provide the surprise.

What you can do there

• Browse visual experiments
• Open an individual browser toy

Why we picked it

The collection makes technical ideas feel like toys without insisting on a lesson plan. A link called Vortex Spheres or Fourier Image Filtering is already an invitation to poke at something strange, and the range of projects rewards following whichever title produces the loudest question mark.

How to get the most from it

Start at the index and choose one experiment by name. Give each toy its own visit rather than expecting a shared menu or tutorial. If a project asks more of the browser than expected, return to the index and try another title.

Good to know

This is a collection of separate experiments, not one uniform application. At least the Fluid Paint page reports that it needs WebGL, while the live controls and browser behavior across the rest of the collection were not tested; graphics support may matter.
