trianglify VS three.js

Author here - interesting to see this pop up on HN again!

Since there are a lot of questions in the comments that might be answered by prior writing/discussions, here are a couple relevant links:

0. Trianglify.io is a GUI for my GPL-licensed node library of the same name, which is available for use in OSS projects for free: https://qrohlf.com/trianglify/

1. Trianglify (the library) first became popular because of an HN post eight years ago. Discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7578002

2. I've written a short Medium article on why Trianglify.io exists and how I arrived at the current freemium/micropayments model for monetizing it: https://medium.com/@qrohlf/i-sell-triangles-on-the-internet-...

This might be what you are looking for: https://github.com/qrohlf/trianglify

This was inspired by Quinn's library here: https://github.com/qrohlf/trianglify/

I built it into a cross-platform app and added some extra features. Builds can be found on the GitHub releases section, and for most linux distributions it can be found on the Linux Snap Store!

Mac support is not here yet because I do not own a mac, but if you have one and have JS/Electron experience, I would love for you to clone and test it out.

Regarding the optimization of the effect, I found an issue on the three.js GitHub repository: https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/issues/14104 The alpha channel issue seems to be a difficult problem, which has been present since 2018. At the end of the discussion, a solution proposed by a contributor is not to modify the UnrealBloomPass but to blend the source texture and target texture in the shader.

Here's how we used Three.js to place and find affirmations in the sky.

Three.js is dedicated to generating 3D visuals, offering a powerful suite of features and tools. It is built atop WebGL and optimizes GPU usage for rapid rendering, ensuring smooth performance across devices, including those with limited resources. Three.js's versatility allows for the creation of a vast spectrum of 3D graphics and animations, ranging from simple shapes to intricate models.

Most of frontend libraries are made with Vanilla JS. An example of library that you might frequently use is "Chart.js". But React is not compatible with Chart.js so here it comes "React-chartjs-2" A wrapper library to work with Chart.js in React ecosystem. Oh you want to use "three.js" for some cool 3D? you will need "React-three/fiber". In my case, I need to implement "telegram-web-app", not so fast, I have to create my own wrapper to be able to use it.

For one of my 100-Day Challenges, I chose to dive into Three.js, a JavaScript 3D library. It's easy to start learning, and it becomes difficult to master with the inclusion of shaders.

Nonetheless, it offers nearly infinite possibilities. You can code and create anything, from a mobile app with React Native to a desktop application with Electron.js. Furthermore, JavaScript provides excellent frameworks and libraries that can be applied in various approaches, such as React, Three, Vue, Meteor, and Astro.
