Granity Engine

Threejs React Redux MongoDB NodeJS

A React-Three-Fiber widgets based game engine build with NodeJs as back-end.

Current State of The Project

Basic Concept

When you create a React-Three-Fiber project it can be difficult to place your 3D objects on the scene. You don't have any visual support to help you doing that. Well, this project was originally about solving this issue, but evolved in something bigger with the time.

The base idea is to create individuals widgets (that are React-Three-Fiber components), place them wherever you want on the scene and they will interact between them without any intervention from you (a bit like Unity).

You can add fields on each widgets that'll be displayed in the editor that you'll be able to get the value from in your React props.

The goal is to provide you all the tools preset for you so you can focus on what is really important, your game !!
