What topics can I ask about here?

Computer Graphics Stack Exchange is for computer graphics researchers and programmers.

Topics that are usually a good fit for this site include:

  • Questions about math related to computer graphics,
  • Questions about a specific graphics programming or debugging problem,
  • Questions about a specific graphics API,
  • Questions about a specific graphics algorithm or concept.

If your question generally covers (one of) these topics, then you’re in the right place to ask your question!


However, some questions are still off-topic, although they might fit into the above criteria.


Please look around to see if your question has been asked before. It’s also OK to ask and answer your own question.

If your question is not specifically on-topic for Computer Graphics Stack Exchange, it may be on topic for another Stack Exchange site. If no site currently exists that will accept your question, you may commit to or propose a new site at Area 51, the place where new Stack Exchange communities are democratically created.
