Feature Request: Add Shader Language support (.gdshader / Custom Shader)

[WOLFxxxxxx]

Hi!

First of all, thank you for your great work on this engine.

I would like to suggest adding support for shader languages (such as Godot's .gdshader syntax or custom shader support) directly into the engine editor.

Having built-in syntax highlighting, autocomplete, and better shader file management would make shader creation much smoother and greatly improve the workflow for game developers using your engine.

Thanks again for your time and effort!

But the engine already has this support. You can click on any scene and see in properties the section "Default Shaders". Or in MeshComponent, LinesComponent, PointsComponent, SkyComponent at properties too.

Check this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eqhaAZBNss at "Customized Shaders" part

Thanks!

Thanks for the response @eduardodoria!

To clarify, I am not asking for a text editor or code highlighting interface.

My request is for the engine to support a custom high-level shader language abstraction (similar to how Godot uses .gdshader syntax to simplify writing vertex/fragment logic), rather than just attaching existing shader files or raw GLSL/HLSL code to components.

Having a dedicated shading language built into the engine pipeline would make writing custom shading logic much cleaner and easier to integrate across materials

Having a dedicated shading language built into the engine is not a short-term option at the moment due to the complexity it would bring. Doriax uses GLSL as the standard language for all backends, and this is only possible because internally I use SPIRV-Cross + glslang to automatically convert GLSL to any other model. What I plan to do, perhaps soon, is to create a visual shader editing model, somewhat similar to what Unreal has.
