Score: 6.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 6, Utility: 5)

Inkwash is a fluid-simulation drawing app in a single HTML file that simulates pen-and-ink with watercolor effects, using WebGL2 shaders for realistic ink bleeding and drying. It is interesting for its innovative combination of real-time physics simulation with a creative tool, accessible as a zero-dependency browser app directly inspired by nature journaling workflows.

Target audience: artists, creative coders, frontend devs
