Hello everyone. My name is Grigory Dyadichenko, I am CTO of Foxsys, and I also love rendering. I would like to talk today about how shaders are designed, how the process of their development is going and what attention is paid to. First of all, I will talk about my experience and techniques that I use when designing and / or setting tasks for writing shaders. If you are interested in this topic - welcome under the cat!

Thanks for attention! I hope this article was interesting and useful to you, but I might still get my hands on building a normal structure of materials by rendering, in order to write in detail about how shaders are written by themselves.
