I've split the docs into two sections: _ Intuition_ and _ Application_ . The
88
88
_ Intuition_ section is for the fundamental concepts of relativity. The
89
89
_ Application_ section is for the hard math and implementation details.

91
+ I have a pretty good idea of what I want the app to look like. Short version is
92
+ - I want to be able to select a reference frame and inspect the observed time of
93
+ other objects.
94
+ - I also want to visualize gravity and the curvature of spacetime like the
95
+ visualizations here: https://youtu.be/wrwgIjBUYVc?si=b-SFIhcVsm5MMwco
96
+ - A more advanced version would be to ray-trace signal paths through spacetime and
97
+ perhaps show length contraction.
98
+ - I want to use exaggerated scale factors to demonstrate the effects and make
99
+ the math simpler. Things like the speed of light, gravitational constant,
100
+ etc.

102
+ I think the visualizations will probably use a shader. I found a good resource
103

You can’t perform that action at this time.
