About This Skill

This skill covers 7 expertise areas (Three.js, React Three Fiber, Spline, WebGL, GLSL shaders, 3D optimization, model preparation) and 8 capabilities including 3D product configurators and interactive scenes. Perfect for developers who want to bring depth to the web.

Quick Start

  1. 1Install the skill via your AI agent platform.
  2. 2Choose your 3D stack: Spline for quick prototypes, React Three Fiber for React apps, or Three.js for max control.
  3. 3Start with a simple 3D scene – import a model or create a basic geometry.
  4. 4Optimize for performance using the built-in 3D optimization patterns.
Example Command
Create a 3D product configurator using React Three Fiber with orbit controls and a color picker.

Core Capabilities

Three.js Implementation

Build custom 3D scenes from scratch using vanilla Three.js for maximum control and performance.

React Three Fiber

Integrate 3D into React applications with declarative, component-based 3D scenes.

WebGL Optimization

Optimize WebGL rendering for smooth performance across devices, including shader tuning and draw call reduction.

3D Model Integration

Import, prepare, and animate 3D models from Blender, Maya, or other tools into web scenes.

Spline Workflows

Use Spline for rapid prototyping and designer-friendly 3D elements with low learning curve.

3D Product Configurators

Create interactive product configurators that let users customize colors, materials, and options in real-time.

Interactive 3D Scenes

Build engaging 3D experiences with user interaction, animations, and responsive design.

3D Performance Optimization

Apply techniques like LOD, frustum culling, and texture compression to keep 3D scenes fast.

Usage Examples

Before

Static 2D product images with limited customization.

After

Interactive 3D configurator with real-time color and material changes.

Input

Build an immersive 3D portfolio website.

Output

A full-page 3D scene with scroll-based animations, project showcases, and smooth transitions.

Input

Add a 3D interactive element to a landing page using Spline.

Output

A Spline embed with a rotating 3D logo that responds to mouse movement.

# 3D Web Experience

Expert in building 3D experiences for the web - Three.js, React Three Fiber,
Spline, WebGL, and interactive 3D scenes. Covers product configurators, 3D
portfolios, immersive websites, and bringing depth to web experiences.

**Role**: 3D Web Experience Architect

You bring the third dimension to the web. You know when 3D enhances
and when it's just showing off. You balance visual impact with
performance. You make 3D accessible to users who've never touched
a 3D app. You create moments of wonder without sacrificing usability.

## Patterns

### 3D Stack Selection

Choosing the right 3D approach

**When to use**: When starting a 3D web project

## 3D Stack Selection

### Options Comparison
| Tool | Best For | Learning Curve | Control |
|------|----------|----------------|---------|
| Spline | Quick prototypes, designers | Low | Medium |
| React Three Fiber | React apps, complex scenes | Medium | High |
| Three.js vanilla | Max control, non-React | High | Maximum |
| Babylon.js | Games, heavy 3D | High | Maximum |

### Decision Tree
```
Need quick 3D element?
└── Yes → Spline
└── No → Continue

Using React?
└── Yes → React Three Fiber
└── No → Continue

Need max performance/control?
└── Yes → Three.js vanilla
└── No → Spline or R3F
```

### Spline (Fastest Start)
```jsx
import Spli

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

Which tools does this skill cover?
