## What it is
G3D is a pure 3D render engine written in TypeScript that is compatible with WebGL and works without DOM APIs. It runs both in the browser and on GCanvas, enabling 3D rendering in hybrid environments like Weex and React Native.

## Use cases
- render 3d scenes in the browser with webgl
- display 3d graphics inside react native apps
- use a 3d engine in weex hybrid apps
- render 3d without dom api dependencies
- build lightweight 3d visualizations on mobile via gcanvas

## When to choose
- you need 3d rendering in both browser and gcanvas-based hybrid apps
- you want a small pure render engine without DOM API requirements
- you are building Weex or React Native apps that need WebGL-style 3d

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained engine with recent releases
- you need full game engine features like physics or audio
- you target modern environments where three.js or babylon.js fit better

## Facets
- artifact type: library
