Tool integration

• pixi-spine is runtime for EsotericSoftware Spine, based on spine-ts runtime
• pixi-tiled loads Tiled projects, but doesnt work with tilemap yet
• pixi-poly integration with CodeAndWeb Physics Editor. Cheap outline, shape interaction for sprites.

Camera and transforms

• pixi-viewport by @davidfig, very easy to use 2d Camera
• pixi-projection - 2.5D and 3D camera and transforms.

Other plugins

• pixi-layers, Layer-based rendering, saves a lot of time for 2d games with multiple layers (nickname, character, shadows). Required for lighting plugins!
• pixi-heaven, Dark-Light tint, One-color tint, Polygon Packing with texturePacker, Mesh texture trim support.
• pixi-tilemap, fast low-level helper for tilemaps, standard and isometry. Faster than collection of sprites, a bit faster than PIXI.Graphics, avoids spritesheet edge artifacts. Want 30000 tiles on screen? OK. Want a million? Just spawn multiple tilemaps.
