Documentation

This is the documentation for headsta.sh — the website, where you can author shaders in the browser, publish and sell them, build karma, comment, and manage your account.

Looking for the plugin instead? Shader Engine has its own docs — installing, importing shaders, editing, performing live, and licensing.

Account & community

Everything on the website works from a single, free account — sign in with a magic link, no password.

• Your Account — sign in, profile, dashboard, data export.
• Karma — how reputation is earned, shown, and what it affects.
• Comments & Likes — join the conversation on plugins, posts, and the community forum.
• Achievements — the badges you earn along the way.
• Orders, Licenses & Downloads — buy, activate, and manage your plugins.

Creating & selling

• Authoring Shaders Online — write ISF shaders in the browser with a live preview.
• Write Access — what it is and how to get it (new accounts are read-only).
• Publishing Shaders — save, set visibility, version, and share.
• Selling Your Work — become an author and get paid via Stripe.

You don’t need write access to browse, buy, favorite, or comment — it’s one step away when you want it. And you don’t need to write code to use Shader Engine.
