I wish I knew this before using React Three Fiber

[@darkshark8268]

Brother you are a life saver. I am a react developer who was trying to learn react three fiber. Read r3f docs -> got confused -> started reading threejs docs -> got confused -> tried coding in r3f -> thought documentation is incomplete -> started reading blogs -> did more coding -> again got confused -> watched this video. Now I am happy some of my concept were cleared. Thank you so so much!!!!

[@RabbitHoleSyndrome]

You bet thanks for watching 😄

[@shiftstage7892]

Hey, this is absolutely fantastic. As someone who has avoided video explanations and would rather dive and hack in the source code for the longest time, this type of quality content is what developers should strive for. Not the forgettable and template-y one-size-fits-all setup, but a deep dive into the limits of the code, render cycle, performance, and the mindset of the authors of both libraries and what they were attempting to accomplish. I wouldn't mind it to be longer. This channel might be the Jon Gjengset of frontend if you keep it up!

[@neneodonkor]

R3F seems simple and concise. Thank you for the explanation

[@ooogabooga5111]

I'm half way into this video, Im just going to say "this is channel is my hidden gem". You have 10/10 explanation style. So easy to understand.

[@EJSaxton]

This is a great tutorial, thanks! one added advantage of the naming convention is that this way there's no confusion between three.js classes you might want to import and the native fiber elements.

[@HenryHa-o4h]

This is an absolutely awesome overview. Your explanations are crystal clear, despite me not having used Three in about a year.

[@TheInuyashaGuy]

This is a lovely introduction! I love that you compared the two libaries side by side. Your explanations are concise and effective. Thank you!

[@xorlop]

Holy.... wow. Ran into all those issues learning Fiber coming from three and knowing React... thank you so much. I was most torn up about the defaults changing... after this, I never understood the jsx components and how they worked. Thank you.

[@RabbitHoleSyndrome]

Glad it helped! 😃

[@aj35lightning]

incredible, been pretty deep on vanilla three for a long time, been looking at cool stuff done with r3f and i love how quickly it looks like you can develop without a lot of boilerplate, but needed someone to bridge me between the two in exactly this way. this helps so so so much, thanks again

[@RabbitHoleSyndrome]

I'm happy this helped you out! 🙂

[@mj2068]

greg, this is an extremely valuable video, i find it really useful. you truly dive deep into the holes and present the findings so clearly and elegantly. as a severe RHS patient myself, i salute you, greg, thank you.

Really appreciate it, thanks!

[@byGDur]

23:53 is such a good call of the fiber developers. Another very important effect of the correct gl settings is that: the more intense the white light is, the more white every object gets, as it does in real life. (without these settings, colors would flip e.g. from red to yellow)

[@RabbitHoleSyndrome]

Great point - agreed!

[@RRits57]

really good wish I had this one year ago, bumped into much of these issue you are addressing.

this is such a great find on youtube, sir Bruno Simon's videos are gems also but most of the people are into functional components now so this is a good balancer, though the approach of sir Bruno is very great specially with the simpleton which is sir Andrew Woan also uses. Such great channels for ThreeJS enthusiasts. Keep making more of this please

Thanks for the video, it's really great and opened up my mind. I started with React Three Fiber but needed to have more control over the general parameters of my scene, like toneMapping and colorSpace, so I took some "vanilla" ThreeJS courses. Now I'm moving back to React Three Fiber. Thanks to you, now I am clear about the "attach" property and the whole logic behind React Three Fiber. You're awesome man. Your explanations are pretty clear and straightforward. 👍

[@thewildventure440]

This is absolutely fantastic! was stuck at the same for very long

[@SamiSha]

I like R3F for being a very good way to make quicky scenes without all the hassle, but I also noticed that this type of simplicity is a drawback of it, I've known threejs and how it works and have been using it for work, in the project I started creating things pretty straightforward using R3F with the drei library (which is encouraged by R3F) and I found myself removing more and more R3F related components and moving back to threejs, right now the only thing left from the project that is R3F related is the component and mounting and unmounting some models that act as helpers (like the grid) depending on the settings. Overall, R3F does achieve exactly what it tries to accomplish but for larger scale projects you should probably go for better solution that avoids using React Three Fiber IMO. Anyways, great explanation and fun to watch, it certainly would have helped me when I started my work with R3F for sure.

so useful! i'm converting some stuff from threejs over to react since we can now actually use it. I assume there's some sort of hook or callback for loading models, since I do quite a lot of fun stuff to model's animations in my threejs prototypes. I guess i'll have to look into it.
