WebGL React App

WebGL React App

The goal is this project is to standardise WebGL and React based projects at Jam3.

Building upon experience it features highly optimised approaches for rendering and scene management.

This is a great starting place for creative coders who want to jump straight into coding webgl.

Features

Flow

This Project uses Flow typing. A great place to start is with the docs or this cheatsheet.

Rendering

  • Graphics profiling
  • Preload objects on GPU
  • Post Processing
    • FXAA as a replacement for antialising when using PostProcessing on WebGL 1
    • Film Pass for a more filmic look
    • Transition Pass for blending between two webgl scenes
    • Final Pass Combine multiple effects in a single shader
  • Stats for fps and threejs for performance insights

Scenes

  • BaseScene, an extendable class that enforces a clean scene pattern
  • EventEmitter3 is used for event communication between classes

Cameras

Lights

Materials

Interactions

Asset Optimsing

Asset Management

  • AssetLoader for loading an array of assets with different types
  • AssetManager for storing and retriving assets loaded with the AssetLoader

Precommit and Husky

Sometimes husky doesn't run if you're using Git software.

To check this, open the console output in your Git software and make sure the pre-commit hook isn't bypassed.

If husky isn't working create a ~/.huskyrc file and add:

# ~/.huskyrc
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

npm build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

npm eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.

You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
