About this skill

This skill enables the creation of interactive 3D graphics, data visualizations, and immersive web experiences using Three.js and React Three Fiber. It solves the complexity of implementing 3D scenes, lighting, and model loading in web applications. Developers should use it when building product viewers, 3D charts, or interactive web-based simulations.

3D Visualizer Skill

I help you create 3D visualizations, interactive 3D graphics, and immersive web experiences using Three.js.

What I Do

3D Graphics:

  • 3D models and scenes
  • Materials and lighting
  • Animations and interactions
  • Camera controls

  • 3D charts and graphs
  • Network visualizations
  • Geospatial data
  • Scientific visualization

Interactive 3D:

  • Product viewers (360°)

Three.js with React Three Fiber

npm install three @react-three/fiber @react-three/drei

Basic 3D Scene

// components/Scene3D.tsx
'use client'
import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { OrbitControls, Box, Sphere } from '@react-three/drei'

export function Scene3D() {
  return (
    <Canvas camera={{ position: [5, 5, 5], fov: 50 }}>
      {/* Lighting */}
      <ambientLight intensity={0.5} />
      <pointLight position={[10, 10, 10]} />

      {/* 3D Objects */}
      <Box position={[-2, 0, 0]} args={[1, 1, 1]}>
        <meshStandardMaterial color="hotpink" />
      </Box>

      <Sphere position={[2, 0, 0]} args={[0.7, 32, 32]}>
        <meshStandardMaterial color="cyan" metalness={0.8} roughness={0.2} />
      </Sphere>

      {/* Camera Controls */}
      <OrbitControls />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

3D Model Loader

'use client'
import { useGLTF } from '@react-three/drei'
import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'

function Model() {
  const { scene } = useGLTF('/models/product.glb')
  return <primitive object={scene} />
}

export function ProductViewer() {
  return (
    <Canvas>
      <ambientLight intensity={0.5} />
      <spotLight position={[10, 10, 10]} angle={0.15} />

      <Model />

      <OrbitControls
        enableZoom={true}
        enablePan={false}
        minPolarAngle={Math.PI / 4}
        maxPolarAngle={Math.PI / 2}
      />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

Animated 3D

'use client'
import { useRef } from 'react'
import { useFrame } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { Mesh } from 'three'

function RotatingCube() {
  const meshRef = useRef<Mesh>(null)

  useFrame((state, delta) => {
    if (meshRef.current) {
      meshRef.current.rotation.x += delta
      meshRef.current.rotation.y += delta * 0.5
    }
  })

  return (
    <mesh ref={meshRef}>
      <boxGeometry args={[2, 2, 2]} />
      <meshStandardMaterial color="orange" />
    </mesh>
  )
}

export function AnimatedScene() {
  return (
    <Canvas>
      <ambientLight />
      <pointLight position={[10, 10, 10]} />
      <RotatingCube />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

3D Chart (Bar Chart)

'use client'
import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { OrbitControls, Text } from '@react-three/drei'

interface DataPoint {
  label: string
  value: number
  color: string
}

function Bar3D({ position, height, color, label }: {
  position: [number, number, number]
  height: number
  color: string
  label: string
}) {
  return (
    <group position={position}>
      <mesh position={[0, height / 2, 0]}>
        <boxGeometry args={[0.8, height, 0.8]} />
        <meshStandardMaterial color={color} />
      </mesh>

      <Text
        position={[0, -0.5, 0]}
        fontSize={0.3}
        color="black"
      >
        {label}
      </Text>
    </group>
  )
}

export function BarChart3D({ data }: { data: DataPoint[] }) {
  return (
    <Canvas camera={{ position: [5, 5, 8] }}>
      <ambientLight intensity={0.5} />
      <pointLight position={[10, 10, 10]} />

      {data.map((item, i) => (
        <Bar3D
          key={i}
          position={[i * 1.5 - (data.length * 1.5) / 2, 0, 0]}
          height={item.value}
          color={item.color}
          label={item.label}
        />
      ))}

      <OrbitControls />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

// Usage
const salesData = [
  { label: 'Jan', value: 4, color: '#3b82f6' },
  { label: 'Feb', value: 3, color: '#3b82f6' },
  { label: 'Mar', value: 6, color: '#3b82f6' },
  { label: 'Apr', value: 8, color: '#3b82f6' }
]

<BarChart3D data={salesData} />

Network Graph 3D

'use client'
import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { Line } from '@react-three/drei'

interface Node {
  id: string
  position: [number, number, number]
}

interface Edge {

  to: string
}

function NetworkGraph({ nodes, edges }: {
  nodes: Node[]
  edges: Edge[]
}) {
  const nodeMap = new Map(nodes.map(n => [n.id, n]))

  return (
    <>
      {/* Nodes */}
      {nodes.map((node) => (
        <mesh key={node.id} position={node.position}>
          <sphereGeometry args={[0.2]} />
          <meshStandardMaterial color="cyan" />

Performance Tips

Instanced Mesh (Many Objects)

'use client'
import { useRef, useMemo } from 'react'
import { useFrame } from '@react-three/fiber'
import * as THREE from 'three'

export function Particles({ count = 1000 }: { count?: number }) {
  const meshRef = useRef<THREE.InstancedMesh>(null)

  const particles = useMemo(() => {
    const temp = []
    for (let i = 0; i < count; i++) {
      const t = Math.random() * 100
      const factor = 20 + Math.random() * 100
      const speed = 0.01 + Math.random() / 200
      temp.push({ t, factor, speed, mx: 0, my: 0 })
    }
    return temp
  }, [count])

  useFrame((state) => {
    if (meshRef.current) {
      particles.forEach((particle, i) => {
        let { t, factor, speed, mx, my } = particle

        t = particle.t += speed
        const a = Math.cos(t) + Math.sin(t * 1) / 10
        const b = Math.sin(t) + Math.cos(t * 2) / 10
        const s = Math.cos(t)

        const dummy = new THREE.Object3D()
        dummy.position.set(
          (mx / 10) * a + Math.cos((t / 10) * factor) + (Math.sin(t * 1) * factor) / 10,
          (my / 10) * b + Math.sin((t / 10) * factor) + (Math.cos(t * 2) * factor) / 10,
          (my / 10) * b + Math.cos((t / 10) * factor) + (Math.sin(t * 3) * factor) / 10
        )
        dummy.scale.set(s, s, s)
        dummy.updateMatrix()
        meshRef.current!.setMatrixAt(i, dummy.matrix)
      })
      meshRef.current.instanceMatrix.needsUpdate = true
    }
  })

  return (
    <instancedMesh ref={meshRef} args={[undefined, undefined, count]}>
      <sphereGeometry args={[0.05, 16, 16]} />
      <meshPhongMaterial color="cyan" />
    </instancedMesh>
  )
}
