The Problem

Modern web applications are visually flat. Adding 3D depth to the browser using pure WebGL or Three.js is complex and completely unapproachable for 99% of frontend developers who simply want to add a premium touch without writing raw shader code.

What I Built

React Three Fiber Integration

Packaged complex 3D scenes and lighting setups into incredibly simple declarative React components that can be used just like standard UI elements.

React Three Fiber

Liquid Chrome Shaders

Engineered custom GLSL fragment shaders for beautiful reflective and refractive glass materials that distort DOM content sitting behind the canvas.

Zero-Config Animations

Integrated directly with Framer Motion 3D to allow for physics-based layout animations on 3D elements, without wrestling with render loops.

Accessible Primitives

Used Radix UI under the hood to ensure that while visually a 3D interface, it remains perfectly readable by screen readers and navigable via keyboard.
