Jolt Physics is a high-performance, open-source physics engine written in modern C++ for simulating rigid body dynamics, constraints, and collisions. It's designed for multi-threaded CPU execution (not GPU dependent) and targets games, VR, robotics, and real-time simulations. Jolt excels at: rigid bodies (dynamic and static), collisions (continuous and discrete), constraints (distance, hinge, slider), character controllers, and vehicles. It's used by Ubisoft and other AAA studios.
