-learning 3d rendering
+Learning 3D rendering with interactive wireframe examples
+
+## Wireframe Tutorials
+
+This repository contains basic three.js wireframe tutorials demonstrating 3D graphics concepts.
+
+### 🎯 [View Live Demos](index.html)
+
+#### 1. HTML5 Canvas Wireframe (`wireframe.html`)
+- **Pure JavaScript implementation** - No external dependencies
+- **3D Mathematics** - Demonstrates rotation matrices and perspective projection
+- **Interactive Animation** - Rotating wireframe cube with vertex visualization
+- **Educational Value** - Shows fundamental 3D rendering concepts
+
+#### 2. Three.js Wireframe (`threejs-wireframe.html`)
+- **Three.js Library** - Professional 3D graphics framework
+- **Multiple Geometries** - Rotating cube and sphere wireframes
+- **WebGL Rendering** - Hardware-accelerated graphics
+- **Advanced Features** - Proper camera controls and optimizations
+
+## Getting Started
+
+1. Clone the repository
+2. Start a local web server: `python3 -m http.server 8000`
+3. Open `http://localhost:8000` in your browser
+4. Click on any demo to see the wireframe in action
+
+## What You'll Learn
+
+- Basic 3D coordinate systems and transformations
+- Wireframe rendering techniques
+- Animation loops and frame timing
+- Camera and perspective projection
+- Vertex and edge representation
+- Both pure JavaScript and Three.js approaches
