A quick and easy way learning 3D graphics

-It doesn't require any additional software or plugins apart from your regular internet browser.-All modern browsers are fully able to run Webgl games without issues. I'm not going into detail here but i think it's quite hard getting used to developing with WebGL compared to other native languages (C++ etc.). The documentation seems outdated in comparison to current state of the language as well. As an example most tutorials explain you how to use JS code to load objects as textures onto mesh…

Pros
  • Open Source

  • Easy accessability via websites(not just PC)
  • Great community support which helps if newbie questions arise during development;
Cons
  • Lackluster Documentation

Pros
  • WebGL has a lot of options available and the documentation can be a lot better
Cons
