## What it is
MathBox is a JavaScript library for creating presentation-quality mathematical diagrams and plots rendered in WebGL. This repository hosts the discontinued legacy v1 branch; development of v2 has moved to a new repository.

## Use cases
- render interactive 3D math plots in the browser
- create presentation-quality mathematical diagrams
- visualize functions and equations with WebGL
- build animated math explanations for talks
- plot vectors, surfaces, and coordinate systems in JavaScript

## When to choose
- you specifically need the legacy v1 API for an existing project
- you want a stable, MIT-licensed WebGL math plotting library with no new features needed

## When to avoid
- you want active development or new features - use the v2 repo at gitgud.io/unconed/mathbox
- you need a maintained library with ongoing bug fixes
- you need 2D-only charting where simpler plotting libraries suffice

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: data-visualization, graphics
- domain: data-visualization, mathematics, web-development, education
- platform: browser
- tags: webgl, math-diagrams, presentation, threejs, legacy, javascript
