   Nexus.js - Fabric.js for 3D▲91

   I was looking for a tiny library to easily transform both 2D & 3D objects with simple mouse &#x2F; touch controls and a fixed camera, in the browser. Like a simple 3D editor but without requiring the user to be a Blender expert. Couldn't find anything lightweight, so I’m building one. Think Fabric.js but for 3D. Built entirely with Three.js &#x2F; R3F. Borrowed some inspiration from VR&#x2F;AR interaction systems for controls. Feel free to play with it and let me know what you think!

    floors.js▲215

    Hey HN, I'm Vincent. I built floors.js to bring back social interactions on the web. You paste one script tag. Your pages become isometric 3D rooms. Visitors show up as avatars, see each other, and chat in real-time. Three.js handles the isometric rendering, and a Bun WebSocket server manages presence, rooms and chat. The whole thing runs without touching the host site's DOM or styles beyond its own container. It works on any static site and is also optimised for SPA navigation (clicking on a door lets you navigate to another page). The landing page itself is the live demo, and I'm in the…
