mike douges @douges.dev · 28/03/2025First external contribution to the @triplex.dev renderer has been merged! It gets userland postprocessing working in the editor. Thanks @hotbloodedheroine.petplay.fi! github.com/trytriplex/t... 151
mike douges @douges.dev · 27/02/2025All props of any component (!) are represented in the UI! The only thing you need to do is type your components with TypeScript 👀 What's neat is it automatically updates if you change the props, perfect for bouncing between code first <> visual first development. 150
mike douges @douges.dev · 26/02/2025you can VISUALLY EDIT react components... BOTH 2D AND 3D... AT THE SAME TIME ?????? ... AND SAVE BACK TO SOURCE ??? 🤯 270
mike douges @douges.dev · 25/02/2025This powers the core of Triplex. Every piece of data is typed and can be subscribed to, with new data pushed whenever it's needed (you write the code for this!). 1. Create the server 2. Create the client 3. There is no step 3 Go to the repo, star it, and comment with your thoughts down below! 😁 220
mike douges @douges.dev · 19/02/2025Iterating the Triplex selection system to "harmonious" status — bridging two React reconcilers into a visual development environment. 120
mike douges @douges.dev · 07/02/2025Here's a video showing what happens in R18. I can't seem to replicate this in a sandbox 🤡. 110
mike douges @douges.dev · 07/02/2025I've raised 1000 pull requests to @triplex.dev. Here's to 1000 more! 110
mike douges @douges.dev · 01/02/2025In the next version of @triplex.dev the scene controls are contextually shown depending if there is a canvas component mounted. 030
mike douges @douges.dev · 31/01/2025Did you know you can have a native select element without a “empty selected” option by abusing hidden attribute and horizontal rules? 020
mike douges @douges.dev · 25/01/2025Fixing a HMR bug in the production version of Triplex Standalone... 1. Write a test and make it fail 🔴 2. Fix the bug 🐛 3. Get a green build ✅ 🧠 h/t to @threepointone.bsky.social for giving me a heads up about this, yikes! 010
mike douges @douges.dev · 20/01/2025In the next version of Triplex for VS Code if you're missing critical dependencies you'll be presented with a CTA to install them, which then opens a VS Code terminal. #threejs #react #r3f #webdev #webgamedev 040
mike douges @douges.dev · 19/01/2025Triplex almost has 400 folks in its Discord community. Who’s going to be the 400th? If you haven’t used it yet come join in the fun and help iron out friction points before the public release 😁 discord.gg/nBzRBUEs4b 131
mike douges @douges.dev · 18/01/2025In the next version of @triplex.dev JavaScript projects no longer have a tsconfig.json generated when opening for the first time. Keep it clean, yo. 000
mike douges @douges.dev · 18/01/2025Someone on the @triplex.dev Discord sharing their AR fishing prototype 😁 120
mike douges @douges.dev · 17/01/2025How I make sure my styles are locally defined (for the most part). 240
mike douges @douges.dev · 17/01/2025How many design tokens for color does your website use? Here's my minimal set (10): 230
mike douges @douges.dev · 12/01/2025The selection/hover outline looked weird over thin aspect ratios. The fix was to use the Y delta which was currently unused... if my GLSL was linted this would have been caught! 200
mike douges @douges.dev · 12/01/2025The last release added prop groups which was well received. But some props weren't grouped as expected! The fix was to analyze all the props of an element and then decide if it is a Three.js or DOM based element, then group accordingly. 100
mike douges @douges.dev · 12/01/2025Some props from Three.js elements were marked incorrectly as required. The fix was to lean on the type system more. 100
mike douges @douges.dev · 08/01/2025Looks like @vercel.com broke something in the Git "Ignored Build Step" when using the "only build if there are changes in a folder" option. 000
mike douges @douges.dev · 08/01/2025Made a highlight video for the latest @triplex.dev for VS Code release. Jump into Discord to see the release announcement and get your hands on the private beta! discord.com/invite/nBzRB... #threejs #react #webdev #gamedev 040
mike douges @douges.dev · 05/01/2025When you go Concurrent and your end-to-end tests get flaky because rendering is now async 💀 😛 110
mike douges @douges.dev · 04/01/2025But yeah my pipeline is: 1. Merge release PR 2. Release pipeline runs 3. Draft release gets created on my OSS triplex repo 4. I edit the changelog manually and press publish when ready 100
mike douges @douges.dev · 04/01/2025Look at all the opportunity for deletion. Is the canonical concurrent usage replacing them with effects + react state? What's the worst case outcome, tearing? @ricky.fm any secret library author docs I should be looking at? 100
