I have been using react-three-fiber and react-three-drei - the react version of this project. The examples are over whelming and wonderful https://docs.pmnd.rs/react-three-fiber/getting-started/examp... One of my favorites is the image gallery. I modified this so that clicking on an image take you into another room (gallery). https://github.com/pmndrs/drei is a collection of examples and helpers. Most impressive to me is the one using a GLTF model, video textures on text, reflections and more. A standalone version is https://bfplr.csb.app/ But even more impressive is the sandbox showing the not-very-many-lines-of-code at https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/ground-reflections-and-vide...

We used React Three Fiber at my job 2-3 years ago (when it was "early") and it was already amazing then, we could do really cool stuff easily. We wrote our own wrappers to easily do <Cube /> and similar things and published it as OSS[1], but TBH documentation was scarce since it was an internal project and there were virtually no resources dedicated to publish it, just a couple of devs pushing for it. We even published one of the first bridges[2]. We didn't want to totally opt out of the React render loop so we had to do a lot of hacks and optimizations, but it was a great experience overall. Nowadays React Three Fiber is very mature and you have the "drei" collection[3], which have all the things I mentioned and a lot more. Though now looking at the source and timing (we published a blog [4] with our solution and their commit few weeks l
