- wildpeaks 10y agoVRML both had node definitions and a scripting part, it's not just a 3D file format in the sense that it's not just describing 3d meshes but also how to interact with it.
- ngokevin 10y agoTrue, but the interaction pieces were still part of the format, and probably limited in power. Though I'm a bit too young to have been experienced that era, so I don't fully understand the comparisons. But I know today A-Frame has full access to JavaScript, DOM APIs, three.js, and Web so it's looking more towards building full stateful applications.
