About

SceneKit is a high-level 3D graphics framework from Apple that enables developers to create immersive 3D experiences for iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS applications. Built atop Metal and OpenGL, SceneKit provides a descriptive API for importing, manipulating, and rendering 3D assets. Developers can construct complex scenes using nodes (SCNNode), each representing elements like geometry, lights, cameras, or other attributes. The framework supports a range of features, including a physics engine (SCNPhysicsBody) for realistic simulations, particle systems for effects like fire or rain, and integration with ARKit to add 3D content to augmented reality experiences. SceneKit also offers tools for organizing scenes, such as the scene graph, which allows for the hierarchical structuring of nodes. Additionally, developers can utilize the SceneKit Scene Editor within Xcode to assemble assets into scenes, streamlining the development process.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It doesn't need the internet, and it's free. The editing tools are the main attraction, IMO. If you are trying to avoid AI tools, it has a bunch of great monitoring tools that are not AI, similar to ProWritingAid or Hemingway. Shows a list of your word and phrase repetitions, all adverbs you used, redundancies, misused words, homonyms, "new" and "knew", "less than" and "fewer than" shows a list of your cliches, dialogue tags, proper nouns, acronyms, risque words and phrases, all words and phrases used to begin sentences. Shows extra-long sentences. Shows all the punctuations you used, etc, etc
  • At first I was quite pleased with it design, workflow, easy to get to know it. I got into developing and creating a story pretty easily.

Cons

  • I wish it exported to HTML. It's rarely updated (but it's still easy to find).
  • 8 days later, suddenly all text from every single scene, and I mean all = 100%, had vanished. Characters were still there, but what to do, when all the flesh has left? No copy or saved files could be opened or reopened and if only the emptied project was there. Hours went on and that was it. I could not retrieve a single word. I should have copied every line to whatever text program and save it elsewhere.
