Editors in Threepipe

Threepipe provides a set of editors to create, edit and configure 3D scenes in the browser. These editors are built on top of the core framework(as plugins) and provide a simple and intuitive way to interact with the 3D scene, materials, lights, cameras, and other objects.

The editors render uiConfig from the viewer, scene, and plugins along with several custom UI elements to provide a completely dynamic and extendable interface.

A common workflow is drop a 3d model into the editor, enable the required plugins, set proper lighting, background, environment maps, set plugin properties like post-processing settings, materials, animations, camera views etc, and export a compressed glb file with scene settings and plugin data. This glb file can then be loaded into the viewer(with all the plugins) to get the same scene and settings.
