Web 3D Integration Patterns
Overview
This meta-skill provides architectural patterns, best practices, and integration strategies for combining multiple 3D and animation libraries in web applications. It synthesizes knowledge from the threejs-webgl, gsap-scrolltrigger, react-three-fiber, motion-framer, and react-spring-physics skills into cohesive patterns for building complex, performant 3D web experiences.
When to use this skill:
- Building complex 3D applications that combine multiple libraries
- Creating scroll-driven 3D experiences with animation orchestration
- Implementing physics-based interactions with 3D scenes
- Managing state across 3D rendering and UI animations
- Optimizing performance in multi-library architectures
- Designing reusable component architectures for 3D applications
- Migrating between or combining animation approaches
Core Integration Combinations:
- Three.js + GSAP - Scroll-driven 3D animations, timeline orchestration
- React Three Fiber + Motion - State-based 3D with declarative animations
- React Three Fiber + GSAP - Complex 3D sequences in React

threejs-webgl
Comprehensive skill for Three.js 3D web development. Use this skill when building interactive 3D scenes, WebGL/WebGPU applications, product configurators, 3D visualizations, or immersive web experiences. Triggers on tasks involving Three.js, 3D rendering, scenes, cameras, meshes, materials, lights, animations, textures, or WebGL/WebGPU rendering.
16lottie-animations
After Effects animation rendering for web and React applications. Use this skill when implementing Lottie animations, JSON vector animations, interactive animated icons, micro-interactions, or loading animations. Triggers on tasks involving Lottie, lottie-web, lottie-react, dotLottie, After Effects JSON export, bodymovin, animated SVG alternatives, or designer-created animations. Complements GSAP ScrollTrigger and Framer Motion for scroll-driven and interactive animations.
16spline-interactive
Browser-based 3D design tool with visual editor, animation, and web export. Use this skill when creating 3D scenes without code, designing interactive web experiences, prototyping 3D UI, exporting to React/web, or building designer-friendly 3D content. Triggers on tasks involving Spline, no-code 3D, visual 3D editor, 3D animation, state-based interactions, React Spline integration, or scene export. Alternative to Three.js for designers who prefer visual tools over code.
16motion-framer
Modern animation library for React and JavaScript. Create smooth, production-ready animations with motion components, variants, gestures (hover/tap/drag), layout animations, AnimatePresence exit animations, spring physics, and scroll-based effects. Use when building interactive UI components, micro-interactions, page transitions, or complex animation sequences.
15gsap-scrolltrigger
Comprehensive skill for GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) and ScrollTrigger plugin. Use this skill when creating web animations, scroll-driven experiences, timelines, tweens, scroll-triggered animations, pinning, scrubbing, parallax effects, or animating DOM elements, SVG, Canvas, WebGL, or Three.js. Triggers on tasks involving GSAP, ScrollTrigger, smooth animations, scroll effects, or animation sequencing.
15scroll-reveal-libraries
Simple scroll-triggered reveal animations using AOS (Animate On Scroll). Use this skill when building marketing pages, landing pages, or content-heavy sites requiring basic fade/slide effects without complex animation orchestration. Triggers on tasks involving scroll animations, scroll-triggered reveals, AOS, simple animations, or basic scroll effects. Alternative to GSAP ScrollTrigger and Locomotive Scroll for simpler use cases. Compare with motion-framer for React-specific animations.
