The Khronos Group is running a survey on the broader shader ecosystem — languages, tools, pain points, and where standardization is needed most. If you write shading code in any language (Slang, HLSL, GLSL, WGSL, etc.), your input helps sha

What “hlsl” means
WikipediaThe High-Level Shader Language or High-Level Shading Language (HLSL) is a proprietary shading language developed by Microsoft for the Direct3D 9 API to augment the shader assembly language, and went on to become the required shading language for the unified shader model of Direct3D 10 and higher. It was developed alongside the Cg shading language from Nvidia. Early versions of the two languages were considered identical, only marketed differently.
