## What it is
React bindings for creating and controlling 3D scenes with three.js via WebGL canvases. It is a deprecated legacy package whose author recommends migrating to react-three-fiber.

## Use cases
- render 3D scenes in a React app with three.js
- control a WebGL canvas declaratively from React components
- maintain an older React project that already uses react-three
- build simple 3D visualizations inside React without imperative three.js code

## When to choose
- you are maintaining a legacy codebase already built on react-three
- you cannot migrate to react-three-fiber but need the old API

## When to avoid
- starting a new React 3D project (use react-three-fiber instead)
- you need ongoing updates, modern React support, or bug fixes
- you need 2D WebGL rendering (use react-pixi)
