A monorepo providing React hooks for the cannon-es physics engine, designed for use with react-three-fiber. Physics simulation runs in web workers to keep the main thread responsive.

Use cases

  • add physics to react-three-fiber 3d scenes
  • simulate rigid body collisions in react
  • build 3d games with react and physics
  • run physics simulation off the main thread in a web worker
  • create interactive 3d demos with gravity and forces

When to choose

  • you're building 3d scenes with react-three-fiber and need physics
  • you want declarative, hook-based physics in react
  • you need physics running in a web worker for performance

When to avoid

  • you're not using react or react-three-fiber
  • you need a full-featured physics engine with soft bodies or vehicles beyond cannon-es capabilities
  • you need a license-clarified dependency for enterprise use
