Core3D

The SDK is a TypeScript library that enables developers to integrate Core3D directly into their platforms. You can use the SDK to programmatically create and edit designs in real-time, build custom 3D (and 2D) editing experiences, capture screenshots, and more.

The goal of the SDK is to be higher-level than Three.js, A-Frame, or Babylon.js, but lower-level than a typical <iframe /> or React component-type editor implementation to allow developers to focus on the design and UI rather than 3D interaction.

Please refer to our [versioning notes](/docs) for info on how SDK versions work.
