Radiance
Highly accurate ray-tracing software system for UNIX computers
Radiance is a free, highly accurate ray-tracing software system for UNIX computers. It is a suite of programs designed for the analysis and visualization of lighting in design. Radiance is superior to simpler lighting calculation and rendering tools in that there are no limitations on the geometry or the materials that may be simulated. Scene geometry, materials, luminaires, time, date and sky conditions (for daylight calculations) are specified; spectral radiance (ie. luminance + color), irradiance (illuminance + color) and glare indices are calculated. Simulation results may be displayed as color images, numerical values and contour plots. Radiance is useful for architects and engineers in predicting illumination, visual quality and appearance of innovative design spaces; and for researchers in evaluating new lighting and daylighting technologies. -

React Three Fiber
A React renderer for Three.js
Build your scene declaratively with re-usable, self-contained components that react to state, are readily interactive, and can tap into React's ecosystem. There is no hard dependency on a particular three.js version, it does not wrap or duplicate a single three.js class. It merely expresses three.js in JSX, <mesh /> becomes new THREE.Mesh(), and that happens dynamically. There is no additional overhead. Components participate in a unified render loop outside of React. It outperforms three.js at scale due to React's scheduling abilities.Y ou need to be versed in both React and three.js before rushing into this. If you are unsure about React consult the official React docs, especially the section about hooks. -

two.js
A renderer agnostic two-dimensional drawing api for the web
Two.js is a two-dimensional drawing api geared towards modern web browsers. It is renderer agnostic enabling the same api to draw in multiple contexts: svg, canvas, and webgl. Two.js is deeply inspired by flat motion graphics. As a result, two.js aims to make the creation and animation of flat shapes easier and more concise. At its core two.js relies on a scenegraph. This means that when you draw or create an object (a Two.Path or Two.Group), two actually stores and remembers that. After you make the object you can apply any number of operations to it. Two.js has a built in animation loop. It is simple in nature and can be automated or paired with another animation library. Two.js features a Scalable Vector Graphics Interpreter. This means developers and designers alike can create SVG elements in commercial applications like Adobe Illustrator and bring them into your two.js scene. -
