Really nice visualisation.
Does anyone know of any tooling I could use to do some plotting like this in 3D space even a fraction as nice looking as OPs? I'm not a web dev but I am a dev, but would prefer something high enough level that I can focus on the "what" (to plot) rather than the "how".
- Theodores 1y agoIn the olden 8-bit days, we would have to do this in BASIC or assembler with a 3D library that we would have to write ourselves. Then we would run out of memory. Later on - about a quarter of a century ago - we had VRML which enables anyone to just focus on the what rather than the how. But VRML always needed a plugin to download, which was no fun at all in the dial-up days. We almost had a 3D web, but no, it ended up 2D. I digress. However, if you want 3D plots without having to reinvent the wheel, three.js is fit for purpose, with the right CodePen example to get you started.
- alias_neo 1y ago> In the olden 8-bit days I hear you. My first real experience with drawing anything was with Postscript, but then I did my fair share of blitting, and a bit of OpenGL. These days I'm just looking to visualise some data in a nice looking way with minimal effort. > if you want 3D plots without having to reinvent the wheel, three.js is fit for purpose, with the right CodePen example Amazing, thanks for the tips.
