 is static, specified commonly as flags in constructor, directly affecting
 compiled shader code. Other configuration is specified through uniforms and
-various binding points, commonly exposed through various setters. All shader

+there's two different workflows --- a classical one, where uniforms have
+immediate setters, and a uniform buffer workflow, where the uniform parameters
+are saved to a structure and then uploaded to a GPU buffer. Let's compare both
+approaches:
 
-@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-rendering
+@subsection shaders-usage-classic Using classic uniforms
+
+The most straightforward and portable way, working even on old OpenGL ES 2.0
+and WebGL 1.0 platforms, is using classic uniform setters. All shader uniforms
+have a reasonable defaults so you are able to see at least something when using
+the shader directly without any further configuration, but in most cases you
+may want to specify at least the transformation/projection matrices.
+Example configuration and rendering using @link Shaders::PhongGL @endlink ---
+by default it's just colored and uses a single light, and we set a color of
+both in addition to transformation, projection and normal matrices:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-classic
+
+@subsection shaders-usage-ubo Using uniform buffers
+
+Uniform buffers require GL 3.1, OpenGL ES 3.0 or WebGL 2.0 and are more verbose
+to set up, but when used the right way they can result in greatly reduced
+driver overhead. Uniform buffers get enabled using the
+@relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,Flag::UniformBuffers} flag that's implemented for
+all builtin shaders, and after that you're not supposed to use most of the
+`set*()` APIs anymore, instead you have to fill uniform structures, upload them
+to @ref GL::Buffer instances and then bind those via various `bind*Buffer()`
+APIs. To simplify porting, documentation of each classic uniform setter lists
+the equivalent uniform buffer APIs.
+
+Because some parameters such as projection, material or light setup don't
+change every draw, they are organized into buffers based on expected frequency
+of change. This way you can fill the projection and material buffers just once
+at the start, light setup only when the camera position changes and with much
+less to upload for every draw. The separation is also done in a way that makes
+it possible to reuse projection/transformation data among different shaders,
+e.g. for a depth pre-pass.
+
+In the following example, projection and transformation parameters are supplied
+via generic shader-independent @ref Shaders::ProjectionUniform3D and
+@ref Shaders::TransformationUniform3D structures and Phong-specific parameters
+then via @ref Shaders::PhongDrawUniform, @ref Shaders::PhongMaterialUniform and
+@ref Shaders::PhongLightUniform structures. While the structures expose the
+fields directly, the data layout may be non-trivial and it's thus recommended
+to use the setters unless they prove to be a performance bottleneck:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-ubo
+
+Altogether, this results in the same output as in the classic uniform case
+shown above. Similarly to the classic uniforms, default-constructed structures
+have reasonable defaults to make the shader render at least something, but note
+that you *have to* bind the buffer to get the defaults, without a buffer bound
+you'll get a fully black mesh at best and nothing rendered at all in the worst
+cases.
+
+@m_class{m-block m-success}
+
+@par Importance of buffer usage and storage flags
+    With uniform buffers, it's very important what kind of memory gets used for
+    the backing storage. In the above snippets, the (implicit)
+    @ref GL::BufferUsage::StaticDraw got used for simplicity, but for data that
+    are changed for every draw it could make sense to pick
+    @ref GL::BufferUsage::DynamicDraw instead.
+@par
+    The most ideal way may be to use @gl_extension{ARB,buffer_storage}
+    from OpenGL 4.4, and instead of @ref GL::Buffer::setData() calling
+    @relativeref{GL::Buffer,setStorage()} directly with the uniform data and
+    with empty @ref GL::Buffer::StorageFlags, which makes the buffer immutable.
+    Updating such immutable buffer can be still done via
+    @ref GL::Buffer::copy() from another buffer, but setting or mapping the
+    data from the CPU side won't be possible.
+@par
+    As with everything, be sure to profile and pick the best workflow for your
+    target platform --- what's best for desktop may not be the best in WebGL,
+    and what works with WebGL running on top GL may not be the best with WebGL
+    that's itself implemented using D3D or Metal.
+
+@subsection shaders-usage-multidraw Multidraw and reducing driver overhead
+
+The main advantage of uniform buffers is the ability to specify data for
+multiple draws together --- after all, having to reupload three or four buffers
+for every draw like shown above wouldn't be really faster or easier than
+setting the uniforms directly. On the other hand, uploading everything first
+and binding a different subrange each time would avoid the reupload, but since
+most drivers have uniform buffer alignment requirement as high as 256 bytes
+(@ref GL::Buffer::uniformOffsetAlignment()), the per-draw buffers would have to
+be very sparse.
+
+Instead, it's possible to construct the shaders with a statically defined
+draw count, fill the buffers with data for that many draws at once and then use
+@relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,setDrawOffset()} to pick concrete per-draw
+parameters. Since material parameters are commonly shared among multiple draws,
+the desired usage is to upload unique materials and then reference them via a
+@ref Shaders::PhongDrawUniform::materialId "Shaders::*DrawUniform::materialId".
+The following snippet shows drawing three different meshes, where two of them
+share the same material definition. The projection and light buffer is the same
+as above:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-multi
+
+While this minimizes the state changes to just a single immediate uniform being
+changed between draws, it's possible to go even further by using
+@ref GL::MeshView instances onto a single @ref GL::Mesh instead of several
+different @ref GL::Mesh objects --- that way the attribute layout doesn't need
+to be updated and it's just submitting draws with different offsets and counts.
+
+Finally, with mesh views and on platforms that support @gl_extension{ARB,shader_draw_parameters} from OpenGL 4.6 or the
+@gl_extension{ANGLE,multi_draw} / @webgl_extension{WEBGL,multi_draw} ES and
+WebGL extension, it's possible to directly submit a multi-draw command. The
+shader needs to have @relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,Flag::MultiDraw} enabled,
+which will make it use the @glsl gl_DrawID @ce builtin to pick the per-draw
+parameters on its own. The above snippet modified for multidraw would then look
+like this, uniform upload and binding is the same as before:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-multidraw
+
+<b></b>
+
+@m_class{m-block m-warning}
+
+@par Uniform buffer size limits
+    Note that size of a single uniform buffer that can be bound to a shader is
+    quite limited (@ref GL::AbstractShaderProgram::maxUniformBlockSize(),
+    usually just 16 or 64 kB), and another reason the parameters are separated
+    and deduplicated among several buffers is to maximize use of that memory.
+    With that you should always be able to submit at least 256 draws at once as
+    the biggest per-draw uniform structure used by builtin shaders has a size
+    of a 4x4 matrix.
+@par
+    For larger batches the expected workflow is to still upload everything at
+    once but then bind and draw smaller (and properly aligned) subranges that
+    fit into the limit. For convenience, all uniform structures are guaranteed
+    to fit evenly into multiples of 768 bytes, which should be large enough for
+    even the strictest @ref GL::Buffer::uniformOffsetAlignment() requirements.
+
+@subsection shaders-usage-instancing Instancing
+
+@ref Shaders::FlatGL and @ref Shaders::PhongGL support instancing, which allows
+them to render the same mesh several times but with different transformation
+and material applied. It can be thought of as a more constrained variant of the
+multidraw mentioned above, but instead of uniform buffers the per-instance
+parameters are passed through instanced mesh attributes.
+
+No uniform buffer requirement means this feature can be used even on OpenGL ES
+2.0 and WebGL 1.0 targets if corresponding instancing extensions are available.
+Using attributes instead of uniform buffers also means there's no limitation on
+how many instances can be drawn at once, on the other hand a mesh can have only
+a certain amount of attribute bindings and thus only the basic properties can
+be specified per-instance such as the transformation matrix or base color.
+
+The following snippet shows a setup similar to the multidraw above, except that
+it's just the same sphere drawn three times in different locations and with a
+different material applied. Note that the per-instance color is achieved by
+using the usual vertex color attribute, only instanced:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-instancing
+
+@subsection shaders-usage-textures Using textures
+
+Unless the shader requires a texture to work (which is the case of
+@ref Shaders::VectorGL and @ref Shaders::DistanceFieldVectorGL), by default all
+shaders are just colored. Enabling a texture is done via a flag (such as
+@ref Shaders::Phong::Flag::DiffuseTexture) and then the texture is bound via an
+appropriate `bind*Texture()` call. In most cases the texture value is
+multiplied with the corresponding color uniform.
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-textures
+
+All shaders that support textures are also able to apply arbitrary
+transformation to the texture coordinate attribute by enabling
+@relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,Flag::TextureTransformation} on a particular
+shader. Desired transformation is then supplied via
+@relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,setTextureMatrix()} (or a
+@ref Shaders::TextureTransformationUniform in case uniform buffers are used).
+This can be useful for animations, when you have a larger atlas with switchable
+texture variations for a single mesh, or when you have texture coordinates
+quantized in some nontrivial way.
+
+Texture transformation is also useful in the
+@ref shaders-usage-multidraw "multidraw" or
+@ref shaders-usage-instancing "instancing" scenarios mentioned above, since
+each draw will most likely require a different texture. There are two options:
+
+-   Upload the textures to subrectangles of a larger @ref GL::Texture2D and
+    then specify @ref Shaders::TextureTransformationUniform::offset and
+    @relativeref{Shaders::TextureTransformationUniform,rotationScaling} for
+    each draw, or in case of an instanced draw supply an instanced
+    @relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,TextureOffset} attribute and have a global
+    scale set for all instanced via
+    @relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,setTextureMatrix()}.
+-   Enable @relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,Flag::TextureArrays} in the shader
+    (not available on OpenGL ES 2.0 or WebGL 1.0), upload the textures to
+    slices of a @ref GL::Texture2DArray and specify
+    @ref Shaders::TextureTransformationUniform::layer for each draw, or in case
+    of an instanced draw supply a layer in an instanced
+    @relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,TextureOffsetLayer} attribute.
+
+While with a @ref GL::Texture2D you may hit texture size limits (not to mention
+you possible issues with materials that relied on a certain wrapping mode),
+@ref GL::Texture2DArray is generally able to contain a lot more data, however
+all slices have to be of the same size. You can also combine the two approaches
+and pack differently sized textures to slices of a texture array and then set
+both offset/scale and a layer per-draw.
+
+The following snippet shows a multi-draw setup with a different texture array
+layer used by each draw. While the projection, transformation, draw material
+and light buffers are the same as before, there's a new per-draw
+@ref Shaders::TextureTransformationUniform buffer supplying the layer
+information:
+
+@snippet MagnumShaders-gl.cpp shaders-texture-arrays
+
+While the primary use case of texture arrays is with uniform buffers and
+multidraw, they work in the classic uniform workflow as well --- use
+@relativeref{Shaders::PhongGL,setTextureLayer()} there instead.
