## What it is
Webviz is a web-based application for playback and visualization of ROS bag files, with modular panels for 3D scenes, plots, and images. The repository also ships standalone React libraries such as regl-worldview for building custom web-based visualization tools.

## Use cases
- visualize ros bag files in the browser
- inspect self-driving car sensor data
- connect to a live robot via rosbridge
- render 3d scenes in react
- plot ros topic values over time
- debug robotics simulation data

## When to choose
- you need to explore ROS bag data without installing desktop tools
- you want a modular, browser-based robotics visualization with configurable panels
- you are building a custom React-based 2D/3D visualization tool with regl-worldview

## When to avoid
- you need active commercial support or the latest features - consider Foxglove Studio, its actively maintained fork
- your data is not ROS-related
- you need a native desktop application

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: data-visualization, gui, graphics
- domain: robotics, data-visualization, autonomous-vehicles, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: ros, ros-bags, react, regl, 3d-visualization, robotics-debugging, monorepo, web-server
