Goals

The project was an experiment to see if it was possible to render a 3D model within a React Native app. This project has been on my mind for the last couple of years, but there were no libraries or frameworks available for rendering 3D models within React Native at that time. Creating this project also allowed me to explore other React Native packages such as: Expo-GL, React Three Fiber, React Native Gesture Handler, React Native Reanimated and React Spring

Known issues and limitations

  • When running the app, the console will log the following message EXGL: gl.pixelStorei() doesn't support this parameter yet!
  • The useGLTF hook currently throws an error while loading a model with textures. The root cause of this issue is a missing implementation within React Native React Three Fiber #1972
  • Expo-GL currently doesn't support the transmission material property. This results in the app throwing an error. The app imports the material manually to resolve this issue.
  • This app was created on a Windows device and tested on a Samsung Galaxy S21. Therefore, I have no clue how it runs on other smartphones.
