Open Source JavaScript Web Development Frameworks for Windows

A-Frame is an open source web framework for building virtual reality experiences. With A-Frame you can create WebVR with HTML and entity-component works on Vive, Rift, Daydream and more. A-Frame simplifies virtual reality by handling the required 3D and WebVR boilerplate to get you running on platforms like mobile, desktop, Vive, and Rift. Because it can be used from HTML, just about everyone can use it. A-Frame is a thin yet powerful framework on top of three.js. While A-Frame is completely accessible from HTML, developers can also make full use of JavaScript, DOM APIs, three.js, WebVR, and WebGL.

Multi-user VR on the Web. A framework for writing multi-user VR apps in HTML and JS. Built on top of A-Frame. Follow the NAF Getting Started tutorial to build your own example from scratch, including setting up a local server. Networked-Aframe works by syncing entities and their components to connected users. To connect to a room you need to add the networked-scene component to the a-scene element. For an entity to be synced, add the networked component to it. By default the position and rotation components are synced, but if you want to sync other components or child components you need to define a schema. For more advanced control over the network messages see the sections on Broadcasting Custom Messages and Options. Create an instance of a template to be synced across clients. The position and rotation will be synced by default. The buffered-interpolation is added to allow for less network updates while keeping smooth motion.

Build virtual reality experiences with A-Frame and React. A-Frame is a web framework for building virtual reality experiences. Since A-Frame is built on top of the DOM, web libraries such as React, Vue.js, Angular, Ember.js, d3.js are able to sit cleanly on top of A-Frame. I recommend using vanilla A-Frame and aframe-state-component with static templating over aframe-react. React wastes a lot of cycles and incurs a lot of memory garbage. aframe-react is often abused where it is too easy to place 3D/real-time logic at the React layer, causing poor performance (e.g., doing React renders on ticks). aframe-react applications frequently ignore the prescribed ECS framework of A-Frame. Internally, React does tons of computation to compute what changed, and flushes it to the entire application. It is apparent React ecosystem does not care much about memory as most examples allocate functions and objects in the render method, and where immutables are popular.
