Pure Javascript demo code for parsing and rendering STL (ascii and binary) files.
The code is currently tightly coupled between the STL parsing and three.js geometry creation fo
6461
r the sake of initial rendering speed. That said, it would be relatively trivial to make the parseStl() and parseStlBinary() functions be renderer-agnostic. Feel free to cannibalize the code as you see fit.
Dump this repo on a web server and open up index.html in a browser. Voila, octocat!
- three.js for the ability to render the 3D models in WebGL/Canvas via Javascript
- Mozilla Devloper Network for the tremendously well-written docs on Javascript typed arrays
Do whatever you want with this code. I offer it without expectation or warranty. No need to credit me in your project or source code. A digital high five would be nice, but is not required.
