Whs.js
whs.js is a WebGL 3D game engine and extensible application framework used to create interactive 3D experiences and browser-based games. It provides a simplified abstraction layer over low-level WebGL rendering to manage cameras, lighting, and the overall 3D environment.
The framework utilizes a modular 3D scene graph to organize objects into a hierarchical system of components. It integrates multithreaded physics simulation by using web workers to run calculations in parallel with the main render loop.
The system includes a modular plugin architecture that allows for the extension of base application logic through a pluggable system. It also features automated scene initialization to handle the setup of the renderer and environment.
