Description

3D Glass renders physically real glass inside Figma: refraction, rainbow dispersion, frosted and chrome. Pick from 19 shapes or turn your own logo into glass, light it, and place a 1×, 2× or 4× image on your canvas. Free, no account, nothing leaves Figma.

Could you build this?

Partial Writing a physically realistic, real-time path-tracer with dispersion and caustics running purely in a Figma WebGL/WebGPU plugin environment requires non-trivial computer graphics expertise.

What it would actually take: The core requires a lightweight ray-tracing/path-tracing engine compiled to WebAssembly or implemented in WebGL/WebGPU compute/fragment shaders inside an iframe. It must handle ray-primitive intersections (BVH acceleration for imported SVG/3D meshes), Fresnel equations, dispersion via wavelength sampling, and rough dielectric refraction. This demands specialized knowledge of physics-based rendering (PBR) and shader optimization for constrained web sandboxes.
