This is cool. Any reason you used three.js directly from react instead of react-three?

Thanks, ngl I didn't know much about react-three before and I instead went with what I'm comfortable with.

Though another good reason would be that theres a lot of web assembly and stuff going on making it more difficult. For example, I couldn't get the USD and MJCF viewers working natively in React like the URDF viewer so I settled for iframe's with pub/subs for communication.

Though if someone knows a better way than I'd love to hear from em haha.

Here's the github btw: https://github.com/jurmy24/mechaverse
