Summary of mrdoob/three.js

The mrdoob/three.js GitHub repository hosts the source code for Three.js, which is a cross-browser JavaScript library and Application Programming Interface (API) used to create and display animated 3D computer graphics in a web browser. It is built on top of WebGL. Ricardo Cabello, also known as Mr.doob, is the originator and lead contributor to the project.

Three.js allows the creation of Graphical Processing Unit (GPU)-accelerated 3D animations using the JavaScript language as part of a website without relying on proprietary browser plugins. A major goal of the library is to provide a simple, yet powerful interface.

The three.js project has wide community support, with many contributors on GitHub. The library, which began in 2010, also provides Canvas 2D, SVG and CSS3D rendering capabilities across all popular web browsers, including Internet Explorer 11.

Here is a basic usage example:

// Create a scene
var scene = new THREE.Scene();

// Create a box geometry
var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(1, 1, 1);

// Create a material
var material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({color: 0x00ff00});

// Combine geometry and material to create a cube
var cube = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);

// Add cube to the scene
scene.add(cube);

This example creates a simple green 3D cube in a scene.
