svelte-cubed

I think you missed the point. This is enabling you to use a declarative, component-based approach over three.js. You get to use templates and reactivity from Svelte. Ex: https://github.com/Rich-Harris/svelte-cubed/blob/main/src/ro... That’s quite different from “what any developer does to use three.js on their website” which is usually imperative code in a render loop. That the implementation itself [1] looks pretty vanilla is actually one of Svelte’s selling points! It would look a lot more complex with other frameworks.

Actually, that felt like a very valid question on your part! A question that would be answered by a small intro for the project, like: "Svelte Cubed is a component library for building Three.js scene graphs in Svelte apps. It was built because of reasons X and Y, attempts to solve the W problem and in practice will make doing Z easier thanks to this." Perhaps a bit like their Getting Started guide, but with the missing reasoning for the project to exist: https://svelte-cubed.vercel.app/docs/getting-started Similarly, the GitHub doesn't seem to have an extensive README or anything yet, either: https://github.com/rich-harris/svelte-cubed While having docs of any sort is nice and should be encouraged, at the same time i often find myself wishing that more projects would summarize what they are, why they exist and what problems they solve, mu

Why does this need to be its own thing? Looking at the repo[1], we have less 500 lines of code not counting the website itself, and its mostly just svelte code doing what any developer would do to use Threejs on their website. I'm sure its nice to have that glue code written for you, (I haven't actually seen it work on any of my devices yet), but I don't really see what this is doing other than making a repo with Svelte and threejs dependencies, writing some svelte components, and making a flashy website. Is this really all you need to do to "create something"? As a self-taught developer I am always confused what _should_ be my labor or not , especially with web-development. Like, I honestly would assume that I would get laughed off of HN if I ever "made" something like this and passed it off as an accomplishment. But perhaps I am mis
