Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Utopia, a visual design tool for React, with code as the source of truth
I was planning on building something similar. My first attempt involved trying to get grapesjs to work with react. This attempt was very cumbersome because grapesjs generated html, and I would try to manipulate the html into react.
https://github.com/artf/grapesjs
Later however, I discovered craft.js, which is basically a framework for creating systems similar to this (page/component editors). Craft.js was inspired by grapesjs, but is specifically made for react.
https://github.com/prevwong/craft.js
Of course craft.js only solves the UI editor, not the code parsing/generation part. Babel is an obvious choice for code generation/manipulation, but I found its imperative approach unnecessarily complicated, so I built react-ast to enable declarative and composable code generation using react.
https://github.com/clayrisser/react-ast
The part I had not figured out was using the code as the source of truth for the editor and syncing it back. I definitely thought about it a lot, but postponed solving it since I had more pressing problems.
So, I have a lot of curiosity about this project. How does it work? And how does it stack up against a technology like craft.js? I noticed it’s not using craft.js, so I’m guessing the developers rolled their own equivalent.

3JS Job Market
this is perfect then. a large part of the threejs userbase is using https://github.com/pmndrs/react-three-fiber (roughly 1/4, and growing) and this is also where you find lots of job opportunities. fiber has a vast eco system, but if you can pair this with your knowledge of shaders you'll find a job tomorrow if you wanted.

Next topics for mastering frontend
there's 3d with threeJS you could play around with that and hooking it into react with react-three-fiber.

Was anyone able to make a 3D CAD tool in React?
Have you looked at this: https://github.com/pmndrs/react-three-fiber

CLI vs Expo
Only instance in recent memory where I was able to get something working with Expo but not the CLI was when trying to integrate react-three-fiber, but even that may be resolved now.

Getting started with 3D web development
this will put you at a massive advantage: https://github.com/pmndrs/react-three-fiber it's a renderer, just like react-dom, it won't change what threejs is or how it functions.

Suggestions needed
there's a whole eco system around three in react and next. it starts with react-three-fiber, drei has tons of helpers, and then there's three-next for when you need 100% lighthouse, persisting canvas across routes etc.

Built a new splash page at the beginning of the year. Used the opportunity to experiment with react-three-fiber.
I picked the stack I did to expand upon my skill set. In particular, I wanted to brush up on react-three-fiber, react-spring & drei.

My own collection so far :)
I think the easiest for you would be to get into this through web development try this https://github.com/pmndrs/react-three-fiber coupled with this https://github.com/pmndrs/react-xr But don't expect super beautiful graphic from this, it's abstraction over three.js library which is abstraction over webgl standard which implements OpenGL ES 2.0 which is 7 years old graphics standard targeted to mobile devices with not much power. Or you can experiment with unity (unity XR) or unreal engine which are harder to learn but produce better graphics.

Why react?
On the technical side, the ability to have pluggable renderers has been very useful for us. We never would have considered 3D without react-three-fiber. Building cli applications with react-ink is pretty cool.

3D Product Card With ReactJS
Then, we need to install the dependencies that we will use in this project. We will use Three.js library, @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei.
