three-stdlib
Stand-alone version of threejs/examples/jsm written in Typescript & built for ESM & CJS.
Basic usage
npm install three-stdlib
// Export collection
import * as STDLIB from 'three-stdlib'
// Flatbundle
import { OrbitControls, ... } from 'three-stdlib'
// Pick individual objects
import { OrbitControls } from 'three-stdlib/controls/OrbitControls'Problem
threejs/examples were always considered as something that you need to copy/paste into your project and adapt to your needs. But that's not how people use them. This causes numerous issues & little support.
Solution
- Real, npm/node conform esm modules with marked dependencies
- Class based, optimized for tree-shaking, no global pollution, exports instead of collections
- A build system for esm and cjs
- Single flatbundle as well as individual transpiles
- Typesafety with simple annotation-like types
- CI, tests, linting, formatting (prettier)
But most importantly, allowing the people that use and rely on these primitives to hold a little stake, and to distribute the weight of maintaining it.
Let's give jsm/examples the care it deserves!
