Show HN: Thermion, an open source 3D rendering toolkit for Flutter and/or Dart
Thermion is a Dart and Flutter framework for cross-platform 3D app development. It includes thermion_flutter for embedding rendering surfaces and thermion_dart for viewer creation, offering scene management, rendering control, and more.

Thermion is a framework designed for creating cross-platform 3D applications using Dart and/or Flutter. It consists of two main packages: thermion_flutter for embedding a rendering surface in a Flutter app, and thermion_dart containing the code for creating a viewer. This structure allows for flexibility in rendering within both Flutter and non-Flutter applications. The ThermionViewer class in thermion_dart offers functionalities like scene management, rendering control, camera manipulation, animation, entity transformation, collision detection, and input handling. Developers utilize this class to build and control the behavior of their 3D applications. The ThermionFlutterPlugin class manages platform-specific initialization to embed a Filament rendering surface in a Flutter Widget, handling texture creation and application lifecycle. ThermionWidget, a Flutter widget, displays 3D content rendered by a ThermionViewer, managing texture creation, platform adaption, initialization handling, seamless integration within the Flutter widget tree, and resize handling for correct scaling of 3D content.

Show HN: I built a large JavaScript powered flipdisc display. Here's a guide
Flipdisc displays, or flip dots, use electromagnetic pulses to switch colors. A project details building a large interactive display for offices, covering construction, power, software, and design considerations. It aims to explore real-time visualizations and user interactions, hoping to make flipdisc technology more accessible.
5 commentsI was really glad that I found this toolkit just before we released our app. We were previously relying on Google's other 3D viewer (because of course they have two), model-viewer, embedded in a web view.
Thermion has solved a lot of the problems we had with the old web view solution, (performance issues, load times, transparency, etc.) so I'm happy to contribute back to the project in any way I can!
you have to spend a lot of time deciding which state management to use theres a lot of packages you have to choose from and it was exhausting
this looks like it could produce smooth 3d experience but i ended up using babylon.js with electron
