Stand-alone version of threejs/examples/jsm written in Typescript & built for ESM & CJS.

npm install three-stdlib

// Export collection
import * as STDLIB from 'three-stdlib'
// Flatbundle
import { OrbitControls, ... } from 'three-stdlib'
// Pick individual objects
import { OrbitControls } from 'three-stdlib/controls/OrbitControls'

threejs/examples were always considered as something that you need to copy/paste into your project and adapt to your needs. But that's not how people use them. This causes numerous issues & little support.

• Real, npm/node conform esm modules with marked dependencies
• Class based, optimized for tree-shaking, no global pollution, exports instead of collections
• A build system for esm and cjs
• Single flatbundle as well as individual transpiles
• Typesafety with simple annotation-like types
• CI, tests, linting, formatting (prettier)

But most importantly, allowing the people that use and rely on these primitives to hold a little stake, and to distribute the weight of maintaining it.

Let's give jsm/examples the care it deserves!

If you want to get involved you could do any of the following:

• Create amazing stories for these examples for our dedicate storybook
• Convert some of the files to Typescript
• Add new examples for the library you think could be awesome for others
