Verge3D is a toolkit that seamlessly integrates with e.g. Blender, a popular 3D modeling software, to create interactive 3D web experiences. It allows developers to design and animate 3D models in Blender and export them as web applications with real-time rendering, physics simulations, and user interactions using WebGL technology. It can also be used similarly with 3ds Max or Maya. Interactivity is enabled with Puzzles, an intuitive and easy-to-learn visual scripting environment.
