## What it is
A WebGL-based real-time viewer for 3D Gaussian Splatting scenes, rendering photorealistic navigable 3D environments from photo-derived splat files. It runs entirely in the browser with keyboard, mouse, touch, and gamepad controls, and can convert .ply files to .splat format via drag and drop.

## Use cases
- view 3d gaussian splatting scenes in the browser
- convert ply files to splat format
- navigate photorealistic 3d captures from photos
- share splat scenes via url
- real-time radiance field rendering without nerf cost

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, dependency-free browser viewer for gaussian splat files
- you want fast real-time rendering on ordinary graphics hardware
- you need to preview .ply outputs from 3D gaussian splatting software

## When to avoid
- you need advanced features like animations or multiple format support (consider Spark/THREE.js)
- you need offline desktop rendering or editing tools
- your scenes require NeRF-style volumetric rendering

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, image-processing, web-scraping
- domain: graphics, computer-vision, web-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
