Abstract

This contribution addresses an obstacle in building the online community in computer graphics education—achieving a critical mass of quality material. We propose a novel repository service introducing “live” graphics gems to the material, i.e. modifiable program listings with corresponding interactivities that are compiled and versioned server-side. Repository material now evolves on the fly. The approach provides a granular source control to embrace also materials that authors would not publish as open source. We describe both the technical content management and educational setups for live graphics gems. Implementation details and showcases are included.
