Whitestorm.js – Framework for developing 3D web apps with physics

Still waiting for someone to develop a WebGl-based physics engine. Even the 2D ones are slow - every single one I've tried so far struggles even with a thousand simple boxes.

The right path seems to be a WebAssembly build of an actual C++ engine. That's pretty close to this, which uses ammo.js, a workerized emscripten/ASM.js build of Bullet.

I've been meaning to experiment with doing precisely this :/.

Whitestorm.js uses AmmoNext (better Ammo.js) I mean that ammo.js runs bullet physics, and AmmoNext runs Bullet Physics 3.

About WebAssembly - it is a future of Ammo.js/AmmoNext. We are planning also to make AmmoNext modular with wasm modules.

Where is the AmmoNext project hosted?

First I thought it is my weary old notebook, but as it turns out it is not just me.
