Help with using certain packages

[jawadakhan97]

Hi, hope this is not irrelevant, feel free to delete/move this if it is.

I was wondering if with qreacto and jsdelivr I could use the following in a quarto website:

• https://threejs.org/docs/#manual/en/introduction/Installation
• https://github.com/donmccurdy/three-gltf-viewer

The former seems to have a way to import it in CDN. I am not really all that familiar with web stuff, if you could point me in the right way (ChatGPT was less than helpful) that too would be much appreciated :3

Hi there, there's a good way to test if a package can be used or not:

• Jump onto esm run
• Type in the name of the package then open the jsfiddle:
• The fiddle will log out the package
• And if you can see an interface in the console logs, there is a good chance you can use the package:

In the case of three.js, it can be accessed using the default notation

There are some GOTCHAS

• Generally, React packages dont play well with Qreacto.
• Always test the package, it might be possible to pull the default in. but it could still not work as expected
• A good example of this is D3.js which exposes the default namespace, but a dependency (to do with dates) causes it to crash.
