This simple demo uses the Basis Universal C++ transcoder (compiled to WebAssembly using Emscripten) to transcode a .ktx2 file to:
FORMAT

The viewer is implemented in WebGL and renders a single textured quad. It also supports encoding .PNG, .JPG, .EXR or .HDR files to LDR or HDR .KTX2 files. Thanks to Evan Parker for providing webgl-texture-utils and this test bed. Go back. Notes: Enable your browser debug console (F12 on Chrome/Firefox) to see debug output. The largest image resolution that can be compressed in the browser with this library is limited to either 12 megapixels or 4 megapixels (depending on format and WASM64/WASM32) to avoid running out of WASM memory.
