# Three.js

Reference project

3D rendering library for custom browser games, visual experiences and interactive worlds.

## Why we recommend it

Three.js gives a team direct control over scenes, cameras, geometry and materials. Use it when you want to assemble your own game architecture and choose physics and networking separately.

## When to choose it

- Custom web 3D visuals and lightweight interactive game prototypes.
- A product whose rendering needs are more specific than a full engine workflow.

## What to consider

- Three.js does not supply a complete game framework: gameplay, physics, networking, save data and level tools need separate design.
- The default dev branch is development source. Choose a release and matching addons; importing mixed versions or retaining unused GPU resources causes integration problems.

## Start with this project

Follow the official installation manual in a separate web application. Create a scene, camera and render loop, then add input and one interaction. Keep the core library and addons at the same release and explicitly dispose of replaced GPU resources.
