Josiah
Taylor.

I like building things
and figuring out how they work.

Sometimes that’s a physics engine in C++. Sometimes it’s an interactive GPU teardown, a networking engine, or a game running on an ESP32.

GPU DEMO · 2026

What’s actually inside a GPU?

GPU Demo turns the inside of a PC into an explorable 3D experience. Rotate the graphics card, inspect its components, and follow a frame through the rendering pipeline.

I designed and shipped the web app, modeled the PC internals, and built the interactions with Three.js and WebGL.

Building my own physics engine

A reusable C++ simulation core with a JavaScript / TypeScript front end. Rigid bodies, collision detection, constraints, joints, soft bodies, and particles—connected through a defined native-to-web API.

Real-time networking in C++

A C++ client-server networking engine built on ENet. Reliable state synchronization handles packet loss and out-of-order delivery, with tuned tick rates and client-side prediction to reduce perceived latency.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Software, hardware,
and the space between.

I enjoy projects that give me a reason to understand something more deeply. Building Marry has meant working through collision detection and simulation. GPU Demo gave me a way to make the hardware inside a PC easier to explore.

I’m based in Florida, with a B.S. in Information Technology and an M.S. in Computer Science in progress at Western Governors University.
