Tooling & Publishing

In this section

Section titled “In this section”
  • vgai CLI — drive a running editor (open scenes, play/stop, select, focus, toggle panels) and scaffold projects.
  • npx @vgai/cli@latest create — the public scaffolder for Three.js, PixiJS, React, or a shipped example.
  • editor SDK — EditorClient for programmatic editor control (used to record this site’s lesson videos).
  • Hot reload — server HMR and in-browser transpile that swaps a component’s code while preserving live state.
  • Storage backends & browser-first editor — OPFS / File System Access / HTTP; build:web produces a static, server-less editor.
  • Validation & generation — validate-scenes, generate-schema, generate-engine-manifest, generate-audio.
  • Build & publish — build:web → an itch.io-ready vgai-web.zip; the in-editor Build panel.
