WebGL Animations in React

Three.js gives you GPU-accelerated scenes, but you must integrate it carefully with React.

The important part

Load WebGL components with next/dynamic and ssr: false so they never render on the server.

Performance notes

  • Cap devicePixelRatio at 2.
  • Dispose geometries and materials on unmount.
  • Keep heavy scenes behind code splitting.
