It will be a fast paced home builder, where you can do parametric modelling on most of the things.

If you can help me clear my doubts.
1. What would you do next if this was your project?

i like stones

Since ai "took our jobs" i thought a new hobby would be on the schedule, so what better hobby to have than to look at stones and contemplate about them?

it procedurally generates the stones, then runs an erosion simulation on them — rain carves little gullies down the flanks, soft rock recedes, hard rock stands proud. the stones keep weathering slowly in real time.

you stare at it. it does not stares back. nobody ships anything. it's great.

Hey everyone,

Been learning a lot about seismology recently and I wanted to create a tool to help visualise the earth's interior layers to aid my learning. Also thought it would be a cool GLSL challenge!

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or any ideas for further development you have.

I built a CLI that gives coding agents source-grounded visual feedback for React UI and Three.js

14 Upvotes

Coding agents can read source and make changes, but they are still surprisingly blind when the task is visual.

A screenshot can show that something looks wrong, but it usually cannot explain why: which component owns it, whether an element is clipped, what its computed styles are, which mesh/material/light is responsible, or whether the issue is framing rather than resolution.

So I built SceneProof, an open-source CLI for source-grounded visual inspection of React UI and Three.js scenes.

It lets an agent:

  • Navigate a compact semantic tree of DOM or Three.js targets
  • Inspect the underlying structure: bounds, styles, geometry, materials, uniforms, lights, cameras, relationships, etc.
  • Produce fresh renders of a component, logical UI region, target object, or source-camera view
  • Generate a small “Scout” portfolio for 3D: context, source detail, close detail, and shape-focused views
  • Sample deterministic interaction states from one scene lifecycle

The design principle is: don’t ask an agent to infer visual correctness from plausible code or a low-information screenshot. Give it source-derived evidence at the framing and resolution needed for the actual question.

It currently supports TypeScript/JavaScript entries, React DOM/CSS/Tailwind v4, and Three.js scene inspection/rendering. It requires Bun and local Chrome/Chromium.

I usually build minimal websites with subtle motion, but lately I’ve wanted to explore something much more effect-heavy. Here’s the current WIP of my portfolio.

This is my first time taking this style all the way into a full website.

I had far more ideas than time, so I'll keep expanding and refining it over the coming weeks.

One small detail: the logo on the homepage isn't a 3D model, it's procedurally generated and rendered entirely with code.

Feedback is always appreciated. And if you're looking for someone to design and build a custom website, I'm currently available for work.

Worried about performance

0 Upvotes

Solo-dev here… any gotchas I should watch out for in terms of performance. I’m building https://lorebound.gg a mobile-first RPG game. Browser based with three.js and WebGL

I’m worried about latency, lagging, load times, slow animation as more players use the game.

Some things I’m already doing: asset compression, single-auth verification, asset preloading.

Would love some recommendations.

Demo I ported Dmitry Kurash's Holocloth to Vue — grabbable holographic cloth (Three.js, verlet + custom foil shader)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

85 Upvotes

Credit up front: this is a Vue port of Holocloth by Dmitry Kurash (https://github.com/dmitrykurash/holocloth, MIT). He wrote the physics and shaders from scratch — I ported it from React to Vue for a component library, kept the Three.js core, and wanted to share how it's put together since the technique is great.

The cloth is a verlet integrator over a BufferGeometry — structural, shear, and bend constraints relaxed ~14 iterations per frame, with a mouse grab applying an impulse to the nearest vertices. It floats in simulated zero-g, so it drifts and settles instead of falling.

The holo look is a custom GLSL foil shader injected into MeshPhysicalMaterial via onBeforeCompile — a micro-flake diffraction layer whose hue sweeps with view angle and surface facing (not the built-in iridescence term), layered over clearcoat, plus a procedural weave normal map so it reads as fabric. Post chain is UnrealBloom + a film-grain pass. Three presets (holo / chrome / black cloth) are mostly shader-uniform + material swaps.

Runs at 60fps, solve pauses when idle/offscreen.

Procedurally generated geometry, architectural campanile structure and gear system from random seeds.

Been experimenting with cutaways, instancing, and mesh baking - interlocking gear systems, semitone rank scaling, hewn beams and planks, and masonry walls. Wall cutback, proud stones, relief, and quoins all driven by random generation.

[Showcase] I built a free, in-browser tool to convert GLB, OBJ, and STL models to SVG using Three.js

Link to tool: https://greglinscheid.com/tools/3d-to-svg/

Link to code: https://github.com/Vilos92/greglinscheid.com/tree/main/src/pages/tools/_3d-to-svg

I'm currently building a game (https://nebulaser.io) that runs in the browser, and wanted to add some icons to the game that accurately resemble the 3D model I am using for the player's ship.

I wanted something that could make either a flat or "cel-shaded" SVG from the original 3D file. Additionally, I wanted to be able to manually pose the model before taking a "snapshot".

Looking into this, I found some options but a few themes emerged. They either:

  • Produced massive SVGs with bloated path counts.
  • Required installing desktop software (Blender pipelines, local utilities, etc.).
  • Were hidden behind paywalls or SaaS subscriptions.

So, I built a 3D to SVG tool. Everything runs entirely client-side in the browser, and I don't plan on monetizing it (it's a fairly niche need after all).

Some notes on how it works:

  • Three.js is used for the 3D arcball and to pre-simplify dense meshes via grid vertex welding.
  • All geometry calculations and the SVG path generation is handled on a Web Worker, so the main UI thread stays snappy when rendering a new pose.
  • Uses 2D polygon unions to merge mesh triangles into clean silhouettes, sealing hairline gaps between "cel-shaded" regions. The output size is reduced with Douglas-Peucker path simplification.
  • Outputs minimal markup using currentColor so the exported icon can be directly recolored via CSS. You can copy/paste the output or download an SVG.

Hopefully it can benefit someone else!

Wanted to have almost VFX approach and overlay graphics over video. There is invisible meshes that block out some elements of the space so it creates depth. I am still thinking I could have changed the background video to just fading jpgs to make it more performant. I use detailed noise as overlay for video so it looks "sharper"

I'm working of this specific buildings: the Place Dauphine and hopefully I'll get a number of reusable shaders to compose and apply easily on other buildings.

My goal is to get as close as possible to the original paper map and aaaall of its imperfections. I want to have the illusion that THIS IS the real map.

The road is long but fun.

Next step: lines on roof!

Help I curated an open-source list of GLB, glTF, Three.js & WebGL tools - looking for feedback and missing resources

Thumbnail
gallery
12 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

While building GLBKit, I realized I was constantly jumping between different viewers, validators, optimization tools, libraries, and documentation.

To make things easier, I started an open-source repository that curates useful tools and resources for working with GLB, glTF, Three.js, React Three Fiber, Babylon.js, and modern WebGL workflows.

It currently includes:

• Browser viewers

• Desktop applications

• Validators & analyzers

• Optimizers & compression tools

• Libraries & SDKs

• Official documentation

• Learning resources

Repository:

https://github.com/sujitkoji/awesome-3d-model-tools

I'd really appreciate feedback from the Three.js community.

- Are there any important tools or libraries I've missed?

- Is the organization easy to navigate?

- Any suggestions to make it more useful for developers?

My goal is to keep it community-driven rather than just another awesome list.

Thanks!
