🔌 A one of a kind scene editor that writes changes back into your code, and you don't need to change your code at all for it to to work!

Installation (Alpha):

Requirements: Using @react-three/fiber and vite

npm install @react-three/editor -D

Go to your vite.config.js file and add the following:

import { defineConfig } from "vite"
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react"
import { r3f } from "@react-three/editor/vite"

export default defineConfig((env) => ({
  plugins: [env.command === 'build' ? react() : r3f()],
}))

And voila!

You should have an editor in your app that writes changes back into your code.

Run

npm run dev

and open localhost:5173 to play with your scene.

You don't have to change anything in your scene, it will just work.

import { useRef } from 'react'
import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { OrbitControls, Sphere, Sparkles } from '@react-three/drei'

export const App = () => (
  <Canvas camera={{ fov: 45, position: [-4, 2, -4] }}>
    <Sparkles position={[1, 1, 1]} />
    <OrbitControls makeDefault />
    <mesh position={[6.948, -2.158, 0.465]}>
      <boxBufferGeometry attach="geometry" />
      <meshStandardMaterial attach="material" color="red" />
    </mesh>
    <directionalLight position={[4.224, 1.912, 3.046]} />
    <ambientLight />
    <Sphere position={[8.817, 1.557, 5.818]} />
  </Canvas>
)

By default, the editor will add some recongnized native elements, and React components that have transform-related props, eg. position, rotation, scale or a name prop. This way we can avoid the noise of having to show the whole React component tree (You have the devtools for that..).

Please provide feedback about your experience. We are trying to learn what will be helpful.
