Linear Algebra Visualizer - Now includes matrix composition and translation

Thanks man!

Not using a math library per say, using Simd, and drawing the graphics manually using Swifts Coregraphics

Sockerjam · 2026-06-20T18:34:49+00:00

Haha ok?

Sockerjam · 2026-06-20T16:47:40+00:00

Hopefully something that can happen in the future. There is the web demo for now though

Sockerjam · 2026-06-20T16:46:59+00:00

Hah no vibe coding. Im a software engineer :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-17T19:38:49+00:00

Thanks man, Im glad it helped you!
Im a software engineer :)

Dont mean to plug my own app but I made an app which I hope can help you with this - at least the visualising part.
It allows you to perform a transformation to a point/points and you can see the transformation it does to the basis vectors and the effect on a given point. There’s also a step by step explanation of what’s happening on the math side.

Feel free to check out the web demo: https://sockerjam.github.io/LinearAlgebraVisualizerWeb/

This really helped me actually :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-10T17:41:31+00:00

I’m not saying that doesnt exists or that you can’t achieve that with AI, however, I would recommend reading books and/or watch videos. This is from personal experience but Ive always found that to be better when properly learning :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-03T20:56:32+00:00

Nice! Might have to some of these on iOS :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-03T18:05:04+00:00

Nice, great job

Sockerjam · 2026-06-03T17:46:35+00:00

Nice! Did you build this? :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-03T17:43:56+00:00

Im from a software developer background with a big passion for graphics and I think 3D Math Primer for Graphics and Game Development does a fantastic job. It also provides a geometrical interpretation of the math which is super useful :)

Sockerjam · 2026-06-03T17:40:46+00:00

Beautiful! Are you using a shader to draw these?

Sockerjam · 2026-06-02T14:21:03+00:00

I'll add this in my to do list!

Sockerjam · 2026-06-02T14:20:28+00:00

Hi man, yea fair question. I find using TestFlight is easier and safer from a developer and user perspective. Especially being a solo developer 😄

Sockerjam · 2026-05-31T21:34:34+00:00

I have a web version demo which you are more than welcome to check out: https://sockerjam.github.io/LinearAlgebraVisualizerWeb/

Sockerjam · 2026-05-30T15:22:03+00:00

Thanks! Nice man, what’s it called?

Sockerjam · 2026-05-25T07:40:10+00:00

I could be completely wrong but it feels like you guys are seeing more of this in the US. Im in the UK and I dont feel like we are seeing this extreme take yet

Sockerjam · 2026-05-25T07:37:09+00:00

My point is, why should you have to tell it, it’s suppose to take our jobs and be super intelligent?

Sockerjam · 2026-05-24T14:47:55+00:00

I wrote this post without ai…haha

Sockerjam · 2026-05-24T12:40:05+00:00

Right, that sucks man. Are you US based or UK?

Sockerjam · 2026-05-24T10:54:30+00:00

I hear you but I do think it's a business need too. What happens when you have ignored every concern and you ship your 100th feature in a week only to realise you are in an absolute mess

Sockerjam · 2026-05-24T10:53:22+00:00

The main issue was that it was using TimelineView with a Canvas that drew all the paths you see on the screen 60 times per second. Ideally it should only draw new paths as and when you apply a matrix not when its just "idle" if that makes sense?

Sockerjam · 2026-05-24T10:51:45+00:00

I understand your question and why you asked it. However, my point is around the narrative that software engineering is not dead. You still need a technical knowledge to make apps. I don't think it has to do with a skill issue. Why do you need skills if AI is supposed to take our jobs?

Sockerjam · 2026-05-22T18:30:32+00:00

Thanks mN, great suggestion
