A growing collection of useful helpers and fully functional, ready-made abstractions for @react-three/fiber. If you make a component that is generic enough to be useful to others, think about making it available here through a PR!
npm install @react-three/drei👉 this package is using the stand-alone three-stdlib instead of three/examples/jsm. 👈
import { PerspectiveCamera, PositionalAudio, ... } from '@react-three/drei'import { PerspectiveCamera, PositionalAudio, ... } from '@react-three/drei/native'The native route of the library does not export Html or Loader. The default export of the library is web which does export Html and Loader.

}A responsive THREE.PerspectiveCamera that can set itself as the default.
<PerspectiveCamera makeDefault {...props} />
<mesh />You can also give it children, which will now occupy the same position as the camera and follow along as it moves.
<PerspectiveCamera makeDefault {...props}>
<mesh />
</PerspectiveCamera>You can also drive it manually, it won't be responsive and you have to calculate aspect ratio yourself.
<PerspectiveCamera manual aspect={...} onUpdate={(c) => c.updateProjectionMatrix()}>You can use the PerspectiveCamera to film contents into a RenderTarget, similar to CubeCamera. As a child you must provide a render-function which receives the texture as its first argument. The result of that function will not follow the camera, instead it will be set invisible while the the FBO renders so as to avoid issues where the meshes that receive the texture are interrering.
<PerspectiveCamera position={[0, 0, 10]}>
{(texture) => (
<mesh geometry={plane}>
<meshBasicMaterial map={texture} />
</mesh>
)}
</PerspectiveCamera>A responsive THREE.OrthographicCamera that can set itself as the default.
<OrthographicCamera makeDefault {...props}>
<mesh />
</OrthographicCamera>You can use the OrthographicCamera to film contents into a RenderTarget, it has the same API as OrthographicCamera.
<OrthographicCamera position={[0, 0, 10]}>
{(texture) => (
<mesh geometry={plane}>
<meshBasicMaterial map={texture} />
</mesh>
)}
</OrthographicCamera>A THREE.CubeCamera that returns its texture as a render-prop. It makes children invisible while rendering to the internal buffer so that they are not included in the reflection.
type Props = JSX.IntrinsicElements['group'] & {
/** Number of frames to render, Infinity */
frames?: number
/** Resolution of the FBO, 256 */

children: (tex: Texture) => React.ReactNode
}Using the frames prop you can control if this camera renders indefinitively or statically (a given number of times).
If you have two static objects in the scene, make it frames={2} for instance, so that both objects get to "see" one another in the reflections, which takes multiple renders.
If you have moving objects, unset the prop and use a smaller resolution instead.
<CubeCamera>
{(texture) => (
<mesh>
<sphereGeometry />
<meshStandardMaterial envMap={texture} />
</mesh>
)}
</CubeCamera>If available controls have damping enabled by default, they manage their own updates, remove themselves on unmount, are compatible with the frameloop="demand" canvas-flag. They inherit all props from their underlying THREE controls. They are the first effects to run before all other useFrames, to ensure that other components may mutate the camera on top of them.
Some controls allow you to set makeDefault, similar to, for instance, PerspectiveCamera. This will set @react-three/fiber's controls field in the root store. This can make it easier in situations where you want controls to be known and other parts of the app could respond to it. Some drei controls already take it into account, like CameraShake, Gizmo and TransformControls.
Drei currently exports OrbitControls 
All controls react to the default camera. If you have a <PerspectiveCamera makeDefault /> in your scene, they will control it. If you need to inject an imperative camera or one that isn't the default, use the camera prop: <OrbitControls camera={MyCamera} />.
PointerLockControls additionally supports a selector prop, which enables the binding of click event handlers for control activation to other elements than document (e.g. a 'Click here to play' button). All elements matching the selector prop will activate the controls. It will also center raycast events by default, so regular onPointerOver/etc events on meshes will continue to work.
Scroll controls create a HTML scroll container in front of the canvas. Everything you drop into the <Scroll> component will be affected.
You can listen and react to scroll with the useScroll hook which gives you useful data like the current scroll offset, delta and functions for range finding: range, curve and visible. The latter functions are especially useful if you want to react to the scroll offset, for instance if you wanted to fade things in and out if they are in or out of view.
;<ScrollControls
pages={3} // Each page takes 100% of the height of the canvas
distance={1} // A factor that increases scroll bar travel (default: 1)
damping={4} // Friction, higher is faster (default: 4)
horizontal={false} // Can also scroll horizontally (default: false)
infinite={false} // Can also scroll infinitely (default: false)
>
{/* You can have components in here, they are not scrolled, but they can still
react to scroll by using useScroll! */}

const ref = useRef()
const data = useScroll()
useFrame(() => {
// data.offset = current scroll position, between 0 and 1, dampened
// data.delta = current delta, between 0 and 1, dampened
// Will be 0 when the scrollbar is at the starting position,
// then increase to 1 until 1 / 3 of the scroll distance is reached
const a = data.range(0, 1 / 3)
// Will start increasing when 1 / 3 of the scroll distance is reached,
// and reach 1 when it reaches 2 / 3rds.
const b = data.range(1 / 3, 1 / 3)
// Same as above but with a margin of 0.1 on both ends
const c = data.range(1 / 3, 1 / 3, 0.1)
// Will move between 0-1-0 for the selected range
const d = data.curve(1 / 3, 1 / 3)
// Same as above, but with a margin of 0.1 on both ends

Semi-OrbitControls with spring-physics, polar zoom and snap-back, for presentational purposes. These controls do not turn the camera but will spin their contents. They will not suddenly come to rest when they reach limits like OrbitControls do, but rather smoothly anticipate stopping position.
<PresentationControls
enabled={true} // the controls can be disabled by setting this to false
global={false} // Spin globally or by dragging the model
cursor={true} // Whether to toggle cursor style on drag
snap={false} // Snap-back to center (can also be a spring config)
speed={1} // Speed factor
zoom={1} // Zoom factor when half the polar-max is reached
rotation={[0, 0, 0]} // Default rotation
polar={[0, Math.PI / 2]} // Vertical limits
azimuth={[-Infinity, Infinity]} // Horizontal limits
config={{ mass: 1, tension: 170, friction: 26 }} // Spring config

</PresentationControls>
A rudimentary keyboard controller which distributes your defined data-model to the useKeyboard hook. It's a rather simple way to get started with keyboard input.
type KeyboardControlsState<T extends string = string> = { [K in T]: boolean }
type KeyboardControlsEntry<T extends string = string> = {
/** Name of the action */
name: T
/** The keys that define it, you can use either event.key, or event.code */
keys: string[]
/** If the event receives the keyup event, true by default */
up?: boolean
}
type KeyboardControlsProps = {
/** A map of named keys */
map: KeyboardControlsEntry[]
/** All children will be able to useKeyboardControls */
children: React.ReactNode
/** Optional onchange event */
onChange: (name: string, pressed: boolean, state: KeyboardControlsState) => void
/** Optional event source */
domElement?: HTMLElement
}You start by wrapping your app, or scene, into <KeyboardControls>.
enum Controls {
forward = 'forward',
back = 'back',
left = 'left',
right = 'right',
jump = 'jump',
}
function App() {
const map = useMemo<KeyboardControlsEntry<Controls>[]>(()=>[
{ name: Controls.forward, keys: ['ArrowUp', 'w', 'W'] },
{ name: Controls.back, keys: ['ArrowDown', 's', 'S'] },
{ name: Controls.left, keys: ['ArrowLeft', 'a', 'A'] },
{ name: Controls.right, keys: ['ArrowRight', 'd', 'D'] },
{ name: Controls.jump, keys: ['Space'] },
], [])
return (
<KeyboardControls map={map}>
<App />
</KeyboardControls>You can either respond to input reactively, it uses zustand (with the subscribeWithSelector middleware) so all the rules apply:
function Foo() {
const forwardPressed = useKeyboardControls<Controls>(state => state.forward)Or transiently, either by subscribe, which is a function which returns a function to unsubscribe, so you can pair it with useEffect for cleanup, or get, which fetches fresh state non-reactively.
function Foo() {
const [sub, get] = useKeyboardControls<Controls>()
useEffect(() => {
return sub(
(state) => state.forward,
(pressed) => {
console.log('forward', pressed)
}
)
}, [])
useFrame(() => {
// Fetch fresh data from store
const pressed = get().back
})
}Used by widgets that visualize and control camera position.
Two example gizmos are included: GizmoViewport and GizmoViewcube, and useGizmoContext makes it easy to create your own.
Make sure to set the makeDefault prop on your controls, in that case you do not have to define the onTarget and onUpdate props.
<GizmoHelper
alignment="bottom-right" // widget alignment within scene
margin={[80, 80]} // widget margins (X, Y)
onUpdate={/* called during camera animation */}
onTarget={/* return current camera target (e.g. from orbit controls) to center animation */}
renderPriority={/* use renderPriority to prevent the helper from disappearing if there is another useFrame(..., 1)*/}
>
<GizmoViewport axisColors={['red', 'green', 'blue']} labelColor="black" />
{/* alternative: <GizmoViewcube /> */}
</GizmoHelper>
Controls for rotating and translating objects. These controls will stick to the object the transform and by offsetting or anchoring it forms a pivot. This control has HTML annotations for some transforms and supports [tab] for rounded values while dragging.
type PivotControlsProps = {
/** Scale of the gizmo, 1 */

}<PivotControls>
<mesh />
</PivotControls>You can use Pivot as a controlled component, switch autoTransform off in that case and now you are responsible for applying the matrix transform yourself. You can also leave autoTransform on and apply the matrix to foreign objects, in that case Pivot will be able to control objects that are not parented within.
const matrix = new THREE.Matrix4()
return (
<PivotControls

An abstraction around THREE.TransformControls.
You can wrap objects which then receive a transform gizmo.
<TransformControls mode="translate">
<mesh />
</TransformControls>You could also reference the object which might make it easier to exchange the target. Now the object does not have to be part of the same sub-graph. References can be plain objects or React.MutableRefObjects.
<TransformControls object={mesh} mode="translate" />
<mesh ref={mesh} />If you are using other controls (Orbit, Trackball, etc), you will notice how they interfere, dragging one will affect the other. Default-controls will temporarily be disabled automatically when the user is pulling on the transform gizmo.

Hi-quality text rendering w/ signed distance fields (SDF) and antialiasing, using troika-3d-text. All of troikas props are valid! Text is suspense-based!
<Text color="black" anchorX="center" anchorY="middle">
hello world!
</Text>Text will suspend while loading the font data, but in order to completely avoid FOUC you can pass the characters it needs to render.
<Text font={fontUrl} characters="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789!">
hello world!
</Text>
Render 3D text using ThreeJS's TextGeometry.
Text3D will suspend while loading the font data. Text3D requires fonts in JSON format generated through (typeface.json)[http://gero3.github.io/facetype.js], either as a path to a JSON file or a JSON object. If you face display issues try checking "Reverse font direction" in the typeface tool.
<Text3D font={fontUrl} {...textOptions}>
Hello world!
<meshNormalMaterial />
</Text3D>You can use any material. textOptions are options you'd pass to the TextGeometry constructor. Find more information about available options here.
You can align the text using the <Center> component.
<Center top left>
<Text3D>hello</Text3D>
</Center>It adds two properties that do not exist in the original TextGeometry, lineHeight and letterSpacing. The former a factor that is 1 by default, the latter is in threejs units and 0 by default.
<Text3D lineHeight={0.5} letterSpacing={-0.025}>{`hello\nworld`}</Text3D>Abstraction around threes own EffectComposer. By default it will prepend a render-pass and a gammacorrection-pass. Children are cloned, attach is given to them automatically. You can only use passes or effects in there.
By default it creates a render target with HalfFloatType, RGBAFormat and gl.outputEncoding. You can change all of this to your liking, inspect the types.

Declarative abstraction around MeshSurfaceSampler & InstancedMesh. It samples points from the passed mesh and transforms an InstancedMesh's matrix to distribute instances on the points.
Check the demos & code for more.
You can either pass a Mesh and InstancedMesh as children:
// This simple example scatters 1000 spheres on the surface of the sphere mesh.

const { nodes } = useGLTF('my/mesh/url')
const mesh = useRef(nodes)
const instances = useRef()
return <>
<instancedMesh args={[null, null, 1_000]}>

Declarative abstraction around THREE.Object3D.clone. This is useful when you want to create a shallow copy of an existing fragment (and Object3D, Groups, etc) into your scene, for instance a group from a loaded GLTF. This clone is now re-usable, but it will still refer to the original geometries and materials.
<Clone
/** Any pre-existing THREE.Object3D (groups, meshes, ...), or an array of objects */
object: THREE.Object3D | THREE.Object3D[]
/** Children will be placed within the object, or within the group that holds arrayed objects */
children?: React.ReactNode
/** Can clone materials and/or geometries deeply (default: false) */
deep?: boolean | 'materialsOnly' | 'geometriesOnly'
/** The property keys it will shallow-clone (material, geometry, visible, ...) */
keys?: string[]
/** Can either spread over props or fill in JSX children, applies to every mesh within */
inject?: MeshProps | React.ReactNode | ((object: THREE.Object3D) => React.ReactNode)
/** Short access castShadow, applied to every mesh within */
castShadow?: boolean
/** Short access receiveShadow, applied to every mesh within */
receiveShadow?: boolean
/>You create a shallow clone by passing a pre-existing object to the object prop.
const { nodes } = useGLTF(url)
return (
<Clone object={nodes.table} />Or, multiple objects:
<Clone object={[nodes.foo, nodes.bar]} />You can dynamically insert objects, these will apply to anything that isn't a group or a plain object3d (meshes, lines, etc):
<Clone object={nodes.table} inject={<meshStandardMaterial color="green" />} />Or make inserts conditional:
<Clone object={nodes.table} inject={
{(object) => (object.name === 'table' ? <meshStandardMaterial color="green" /> : null)}
} />
A hook that abstracts AnimationMixer.
const { nodes, materials, animations } = useGLTF(url)
const { ref, mixer, names, actions, clips } = useAnimations(animations)
useEffect(() => {
actions?.jump.play()
})
return (
<mesh ref={ref} />The hook can also take a pre-existing root (which can be a plain object3d or a reference to one):
const { scene, animations } = useGLTF(url)
const { actions } = useAnimations(animations, scene)
return <primitive object={scene} />An abstraction for threes MarchingCubes
<MarchingCubes resolution={50} maxPolyCount={20000} enableUvs={false} enableColors={true}>

Abstraction around Three's DecalGeometry. It will use the its parent mesh as the decal surface by default.
The decal box has to intersect the surface, otherwise it will not be visible. if you do not specifiy a rotation it will look at the parents center point. You can also pass a single number as the rotation which allows you to spin it.
<mesh>
<sphereGeometry />
<meshBasicMaterial />
<Decal
debug // Makes "bounding box" of the decal visible
position={[0, 0, 0]} // Position of the decal
rotation={[0, 0, 0]} // Rotation of the decal (can be a vector or a degree in radians)
scale={1} // Scale of the decal
>
<meshBasicMaterial map={texture} />
</Decal>
</mesh>If you do not specifiy a material it will create a transparent meshStandardMaterial with a polygonOffsetFactor of -10 and all rest-props will be spread over it.
<mesh>
<sphereGeometry />

Easily add reflections and/or blur to any mesh. It takes surface roughness into account for a more realistic effect. This material extends from THREE.MeshStandardMaterial and accepts all its props.
<mesh>
<planeGeometry />
<MeshReflectorMaterial
blur={[0, 0]} // Blur ground reflections (width, heigt), 0 skips blur
mixBlur={0} // How much blur mixes with surface roughness (default = 1)
mixStrength={1} // Strength of the reflections
mixContrast={1} // Contrast of the reflections
resolution={256} // Off-buffer resolution, lower=faster, higher=better quality, slower
mirror={0} // Mirror environment, 0 = texture colors, 1 = pick up env colors
depthScale={0} // Scale the depth factor (0 = no depth, default = 0)
minDepthThreshold={0.9} // Lower edge for the depthTexture interpolation (default = 0)
maxDepthThreshold={1} // Upper edge for the depthTexture interpolation (default = 0)
depthToBlurRatioBias={0.25} // Adds a bias factor to the depthTexture before calculating the blur amount [blurFactor = blurTexture * (depthTexture + bias)]. It accepts values between 0 and 1, default is 0.25. An amount > 0 of bias makes sure that the blurTexture is not too sharp because of the multiplication with the depthTexture
distortion={1} // Amount of distortion based on the distortionMap texture
distortionMap={distortionTexture} // The red channel of this texture is used as the distortion map. Default is null
debug={0} /* Depending on the assigned value, one of the following channels is shown:
0 = no debug
1 = depth channel

Allows you to tie HTML content to any object of your scene. It will be projected to the objects whereabouts automatically.
<Html
as='div' // Wrapping element (default: 'div')
wrapperClass // The className of the wrapping element (default: undefined)
prepend // Project content behind the canvas (default: false)
center // Adds a -50%/-50% css transform (default: false) [ignored in transform mode]
fullscreen // Aligns to the upper-left corner, fills the screen (default:false) [ignored in transform mode]
distanceFactor={10} // If set (default: undefined), children will be scaled by this factor, and also by distance to a PerspectiveCamera / zoom by a OrthographicCamera.
zIndexRange={[100, 0]} // Z-order range (default=[16777271, 0])
portal={domnodeRef} // Reference to target container (default=undefined)
transform // If true, applies matrix3d transformations (default=false)
sprite // Renders as sprite, but only in transform mode (default=false)
calculatePosition={(el: Object3D, camera: Camera, size: { width: number; height: number }) => number[]} // Override default positioning function. (default=undefined) [ignored in transform mode]
occlude={[ref]} // Can be true or a Ref<Object3D>[], true occludes the entire scene (default: undefined)
onOcclude={(visible) => null} // Callback when the visibility changes (default: undefined)
{...groupProps} // All THREE.Group props are valid
{...divProps} // All HTMLDivElement props are valid
>
<h1>hello</h1>
<p>world</p>
</Html>Html can hide behind geometry using the occlude prop.
// Raytrace the entire scene
<Html occlude />
// Raytrace only specific elements
<Html occlude={[ref1, ref2]} />When the Html object hides it sets the opacity prop on the innermost div. If you want to animate or control the transition yourself then you can use onOcclude.
const [hidden, set] = useState()
<Html
occlude
onOcclude={set}
style={{
transition: 'all 0.5s',
opacity: hidden ? 0 : 1,
transform: `scale(${hidden ? 0.5 : 1})`
}} />
This component allows you to cycle through all objects underneath the cursor with optional visual feedback. This can be useful for non-trivial selection, CAD data, housing, everything that has layers. It does this by changing the raycasters filter function and then refreshing the raycaster.
For this to work properly your event handler have to call event.stopPropagation(), for instance in onPointerOver or onClick, only one element can be selective for cycling to make sense.
<CycleRaycast
preventDefault={true} // Call event.preventDefault() (default: true)
scroll={true} // Wheel events (default: true)
keyCode={9} // Keyboard events (default: 9 [Tab])
onChanged={(objects, cycle) => console.log(objects, cycle)} // Optional onChanged event
/>
This component allows you to select/unselect objects by clicking on them. It keeps track of the currently selected objects and can select multiple objects (with the shift key). Nested components can request the current selection (which is always an array) with the useSelect hook. With the box prop it will let you shift-box-select objects by holding and draging the cursor over multiple objects. Optionally you can filter the selected items as well as define in which shape they are stored by defining the filter prop.
<Select box multiple onChange={console.log} filter={items => items}>
<Foo />
<Bar />
</Select>
function Foo() {
const selected = useSelect()Adds stats to document.body. It takes over the render-loop!
<Stats showPanel={0} className="stats" {...props} />You can choose to mount Stats to a different DOM Element - for example, for custom styling:
const node = useRef(document.createElement('div'))
useEffect(() => {
node.current.id = 'test'
document.body.appendChild(node.current)
return () => document.body.removeChild(node.current)
}, [])
return <Stats parent={parent} />
Renders the scene into a depth-buffer. Often effects depend on it and this allows you to render a single buffer and share it, which minimizes the performance impact. It returns the buffer's depthTexture.
Since this is a rather expensive effect you can limit the amount of frames it renders when your objects are static. For instance making it render only once by setting frames: 1.
const depthBuffer = useDepthBuffer({
size: 256, // Size of the FBO, 256 by default
frames: Infinity, // How many frames it renders, Infinity by default
})
return <SomethingThatNeedsADepthBuffer depthBuffer={depthBuffer} />Creates a THREE.WebGLRenderTarget.
const target = useFBO({
multisample: true,
stencilBuffer: false,
})The rendertarget is automatically disposed when unmounted.
A hook for the rare case when you are using non-default cameras for heads-up-displays or portals, and you need events/raytracing to function properly (raycasting uses the default camera otherwise).
<mesh raycast={useCamera(customCamera)} />This hook uses DetectGPU by @TimvanScherpenzeel, wrapped into suspense, to determine what tier should be assigned to the user's GPU.
👉 This hook CAN be used outside the @react-three/fiber Canvas.
function App() {
const GPUTier = useDetectGPU()
// show a fallback for mobile or lowest tier GPUs
return (
{(GPUTier.tier === "0" || GPUTier.isMobile) ? <Fallback /> : <Canvas>...</Canvas>
<Suspense fallback={null}>
<App />This hook calculates aspect ratios (for now only what in css would be image-size: cover is supported). You can use it to make an image fill the screen. It is responsive and adapts to viewport resize. Just give the hook the image bounds in pixels. It returns an array: [width, height, 1].
const scale = useAspect(
1024, // Pixel-width
512, // Pixel-height
1 // Optional scaling factor
)
return (
<mesh scale={scale}>
<planeGeometry />
<meshBasicMaterial map={imageTexture} />A small hook that sets the css body cursor according to the hover state of a mesh, so that you can give the use visual feedback when the mouse enters a shape. Arguments 1 and 2 determine the style, the defaults are: onPointerOver = 'pointer', onPointerOut = 'auto'.
const [hovered, set] = useState()
useCursor(hovered, /*'pointer', 'auto'*/)
return (
<mesh onPointerOver={() => set(true)} onPointerOut={() => set(false)}>
A very cheap frustum check that gives you a reference you can observe in order to know if the object has entered the view or is outside of it. This relies on THREE.Object3D.onBeforeRender so it only works on objects that are effectively rendered, like meshes, lines, sprites. It won't work on groups, object3d's, bones, etc.
const ref = useIntersect((visible) => console.log('object is visible', visible))
return <mesh ref={ref} />
The cheapest possible way of getting reflections in threejs. This will box-project the current environment map onto a plane. It returns an object that you need to spread over its material. The spread object contains a ref, onBeforeCompile and customProgramCacheKey. If you combine it with drei/CubeCamera you can "film" a single frame of the environment and feed it to the material, thereby getting realistic reflections at no cost. Align it with the position and scale properties.
const projection = useBoxProjectedEnv(
[0, 0, 0], // Position
[1, 1, 1] // Scale
)
<CubeCamera frames={1}>
{(texture) => (
<mesh>
<planeGeometry />
<meshStandardMaterial envMap={texture} {...projection} />
</mesh>
)}
</CubeCamera>A hook to obtain an array of points that make up a Trail. You can use this array to drive your own MeshLine or make a trail out of anything you please.
Note: The hook returns a ref (MutableRefObject<Vector3[]>) this means updates to it will not trigger a re-draw, thus keeping this cheap.
const points = useTrail(
target, // Required target object. This object will produce the trail.
{
length, // Length of the line
decay, // How fast the line fades away
local, // Wether to use the target's world or local positions
stride, // Min distance between previous and current point
interval, // Number of frames to wait before next calculation
}
)
// To use...
useFrame(() => {
meshLineRef.current.position.setPoints(points.current)
})A hook to obtain the result of the <Sampler /> as a buffer. Useful for driving anything other than InstancedMesh via the Sampler.
const buffer = useSurfaceSampler(
mesh, // Mesh to sample
count, // [Optional] Number of samples (default: 16)
transform, // [Optional] Transformation function. Same as in `<Sampler />`
weight, // [Optional] Same as in `<Sampler />`
instancedMesh // [Optional] Instanced mesh to scatter
)
A quick and easy loading overlay component that you can drop on top of your canvas. It's intended to "hide" the whole app, so if you have multiple suspense wrappers in your application, you should use multiple loaders. It will show an animated loadingbar and a percentage.
<Canvas>
<Suspense fallback={null}>
<AsyncModels />
</Suspense>
</Canvas>
<Loader />You can override styles, too.
<Loader
containerStyles={...container} // Flex layout styles
innerStyles={...inner} // Inner container styles
barStyles={...bar} // Loading-bar styles
dataStyles={...data} // Text styles
dataInterpolation={(p) => `Loading ${p.toFixed(2)}%`} // Text
initialState={(active) => active} // Initial black out state
>A convenience hook that wraps THREE.DefaultLoadingManager's progress status.
function Loader() {
const { active, progress, errors, item, loaded, total } = useProgress()
return <Html center>{progress} % loaded</Html>
}
return (
<Suspense fallback={<Loader />}>
<AsyncModels />
</Suspense>
)If you don't want your progress component to re-render on all changes you can be specific as to what you need, for instance if the component is supposed to collect errors only. Look into zustand for more info about selectors.
const errors = useProgress((state) => state.errors)👉 Note that your loading component does not have to be a suspense fallback. You can use it anywhere, even in your dom tree, for instance for overlays.
A convenience hook that uses useLoader and GLTFLoader, it defaults to CDN loaded draco binaries (https://www.gstatic.com/draco/v1/decoders/) which are only loaded for compressed models.

texture2.wrapS = texture2.wrapT = THREE.RepeatWrapping
})A convenience hook that uses useLoader and KTX2Loader
const texture = useKTX2(url)
const [texture1, texture2] = useKTX2([texture1, texture2])
return <meshStandardMaterial map={texture} />A convenience hook that uses useLoader and CubeTextureLoader
const envMap = useCubeTexture(['px.png', 'nx.png', 'py.png', 'ny.png', 'pz.png', 'nz.png'], { path: 'cube/' })
A convenience hook that returns a THREE.VideoTexture and integrates loading into suspense. By default it falls back until the canplay event. Then it starts playing the video, which, if the video is muted, is allowed in the browser without user interaction.
type VideoTextureProps = {

A wrapper around THREE.InstancedMesh. This allows you to define hundreds of thousands of objects in a single draw call, but declaratively!
<Instances
limit={1000} // Optional: max amount of items (for calculating buffer size)
range={1000} // Optional: draw-range
>
<boxGeometry />
<meshStandardMaterial />
<Instance

position={[1, 2, 3]}
rotation={[Math.PI / 3, 0, 0]}
onClick={onClick} ... />
// As many as you want, make them conditional, mount/unmount them, lazy load them, etc ...
</Instances>You can nest Instances and use relative coordinates!
<group position={[1, 2, 3]} rotation={[Math.PI / 2, 0, 0]}>
<Instance />
</group>Instances can also receive non-instanced objects, for instance annotations!
<Instance>
<Html>hello from the dom</Html>
</Instance>You can define events on them!
<Instance onClick={...} onPointerOver={...} />👉 Note: While creating instances declaratively keeps all the power of components with reduced draw calls, it comes at the cost of CPU overhead. For cases like foliage where you want no CPU overhead with thousands of intances you should use THREE.InstancedMesh such as in this example.
This creates instances for existing meshes and allows you to use them cheaply in the same scene graph. Each type will cost you exactly one draw call, no matter how many you use. meshes has to be a collection of pre-existing THREE.Mesh objects.
<Merged meshes={[box, sphere]}>
{(Box, Sphere) => (

<Sphere scale={0.7} position={[2, 1, 0]} color="green" />
<Sphere scale={0.7} position={[3, 2, 0]} color="teal" />
</>
)}
</Merged>You may also use object notation, which is good for loaded models.
function Model({ url }) {
const { nodes } = useGLTF(url)
return (

<Segments limit={1000} lineWidth={1.0}>
<Segment start={[0, 0, 0]} end={[0, 10, 0]} color="red" />
<Segment start={[0, 0, 0]} end={[0, 10, 10]} color={[1, 0, 1]} />
</Segments>const ref = useRef()
// E.g. to change segment position each frame.
useFrame(() => {

<Detailed distances={[0, 10, 20]} {...props}>
<mesh geometry={highDetail} />
<mesh geometry={mediumDetail} />
<mesh geometry={lowDetail} />
</Detailed>The WebGLRenderer will compile materials only when they hit the frustrum, which can cause jank. This component precompiles the scene using gl.compile which makes sure that your app is responsive from the get go.
By default gl.compile will only preload visible objects, if you supply the all prop, it will circumvent that. With the scene and camera props you could also use it in portals.
<Canvas>
<Suspense fallback={null}>
<Model />
<Preload all />Sets gl.shadowMap.autoUpdate to false while mounted and requests a single gl.shadowMap.needsUpdate = true afterwards. This freezes all shadow maps the moment this component comes in, which makes shadows performant again (with the downside that they are now static). Mount this component in lock-step with your models, for instance by dropping it into the same suspense boundary of a model that loads.
<Canvas>
<Suspense fallback={null}>
<Model />
<BakeShadows />A very fast, but often good-enough bounds-only raycast for meshes. You can use this if performance has precedence over pointer precision.
<mesh raycast={meshBounds} />Drop this component into your scene and it will cut the pixel-ratio on regress according to the canvas's performance min/max settings. This allows you to temporarily reduce visual quality in exchange for more performance, for instance when the camera moves (look into drei's controls regress flag). Optionally, you can set the canvas to a pixelated filter, which would be even faster.
<AdaptiveDpr pixelated />Drop this component into your scene and it will switch off the raycaster while the system is in regress.
<AdaptiveEvents />A hook to speed up the default raycasting by using the BVH Implementation by @gkjohnnson.
const mesh = useRef()
useBVH(mesh)
<mesh ref={mesh} ... />This component will collect the average fps (frames per second) over time. If after a couple of iterations the averages are below or above a threshold it will trigger onIncline and onDecline callbacks that allow you to respond. Typically you would reduce the quality of your scene, the resolution, effects, the amount of stuff to render, or, increase it if you have enough framerate to fill.
Since this would normally cause ping-ponging between the two callbacks you define upper and lower framerate bounds, as long as you stay within that margin nothing will trigger. Ideally your app should find its way into that margin by gradually altering quality.
type PerformanceMonitorProps = {
/** How much time in milliseconds to collect an average fps, 250 */
ms?: number
/** How many interations of averages to collect, 10 */
iterations?: number
/** The percentage of iterations that are matched against the lower and upper bounds, 0.75 */
threshold?: number
/** A function that receive the max device refreshrate to determine lower and upper bounds which create a margin where neither incline nor decline should happen, (refreshrate) => (refreshrate > 90 ? [50, 90] : [50, 60]) */
bounds: (refreshrate: number) => [lower: number, upper: number]
/** How many times it can inline or decline before onFallback is called, Infinity */
flipflops?: number
/** The factor increases and decreases between 0-1, this prop sets the initial value, 0.5 */
factor?: number
/** The step that gets added or subtracted to or from the factor on each incline/decline, 0.1 */
step?: number
/** When performance is higher than the upper bound (good!) */
onIncline?: (api: PerformanceMonitorApi) => void
/** When performance is lower than the upper bound (bad!) */
onDecline?: (api: PerformanceMonitorApi) => void
/** Incline and decline will change the factor, this will trigger when that happened */
onChange?: (api: PerformanceMonitorApi) => void
/** Called after when the number of flipflops is reached, it indicates instability, use the function to set a fixed baseline */
onFallback?: (api: PerformanceMonitorApi) => void
/** Children may use the usePerformanceMonitor hook */
children?: React.ReactNode
}All callbacks give you the following data:
type PerformanceMonitorApi = {
/** Current fps */
fps: number
/** Current performance factor, between 0 and 1 */
factor: number
/** Current highest fps, you can use this to determine device refresh rate */
refreshrate: number
/** Fps samples taken over time */
frames: number[]
/** Averages of frames taken over n iterations */
averages: number[]
}A simple example for regulating the resolution. It starts out with 1.5, if the system falls below the bounds it goes to 1, if it's fast enough it goes to 2.
function App() {
const [dpr, setDpr] = useState(1.5)
return (
<Canvas dpr={dpr}>
<PerformanceMonitor onIncline={() => setDpr(2)} onDecline={() => setDpr(1)} >You can also use the onChange callback to get notified when the average changes in whichever direction. This allows you to make gradual changes. It gives you a factor between 0 and 1, which is increased by incline and decreased by decline. The factor is initially 0.5 by default. If your app starts with lowest defaults and gradually increases quality set factor to 0. If it starts with highest defaults and decreases quality, set it to 1. If it starts in the middle and can either increase or decrease, set it to 0.5.
The following starts at the highest dpr (2) and clamps the gradual dpr between 0.5 at the lowest and 2 at the highest. If the app is in trouble it will reduce factor by step until it is either 0 or the app has found its sweet spot above that.

Renders a heads-up-display (HUD). Each HUD is a scene on top of the previous. That scene is inside a React createPortal and is completely isolated, you can have your own cameras in there, environments, etc. The first HUD (renderpriotity === 1) will clear the scene and render the default scene, it needs to be the first to execute! Make sure to be explicit about the renderpriority of your HUDs.

Views use gl.scissor to cut the viewport into segments. You tie a view to a tracking div which then controls the position and bounds of the viewport. This allows you to have multiple views with a single, performant canvas. These views will follow their tracking elements, scroll along, resize, etc.
It is advisable to re-connect the event system to a parent that contains both the canvas and the html content. This ensures that both are accessible/selectable and even allows you to mount controls or other deeper integrations into your view.
Note that
@react-three/fibernewer than^8.1.0is required forViewto work correctly if the canvas/react three fiber root is not fullscreen. A warning will be logged if drei is used with older versions of@react-three/fiber.

This component allows you to render a live scene into a texture which you can then apply to a material. The contents of it run inside a portal and are separate from the rest of the canvas, therefore you can have events in there, environment maps, etc.

<mesh />
</Center>Optionally you can define onCentered which calls you back when contents have been measured. This would allow you to easily scale to fit. The following for instance fits a model to screen height.
function ScaledModel() {
const viewport = useThree((state) => state.viewport)
return (
<Center onCentered={({ container, height }) => container.scale.setScalar(viewport.height / height)}>
<Model />
</Center>A component using AABB (Axis-aligned bounding boxes) to offset children position by specified multipliers (anchor property) on each axis. You can use this component to change children positioning in regard of the parent's bounding box, eg. pinning Html component to one of the parent's corners. Multipliers determine the offset value based on the AABB's size:
childrenAnchor = boundingBoxPosition + (boundingBoxSize * anchor / 2)
<BBAnchor
anchor // THREE.Vector3 or [number, number, number]
{...groupProps} // All THREE.Group props are valid
>
{children}
</BBAnchor>For instance, one could want the Html component to be pinned to positive x, positive y, and positive z corner of a Box object:
<Box>
<BBAnchor anchor={[1, 1, 1]}>
<Html center>
<span>Hello world!</span>
</Html>
</BBAnchor>
</Box>
Calculates a boundary box and centers the camera accordingly. If you are using camera controls, make sure to pass them the makeDefault prop. fit fits the current view on first render. clip sets the cameras near/far planes. observe will trigger on window resize.
<Bounds fit clip observe damping={6} margin={1.2}>
<mesh />
</Bounds>The Bounds component also acts as a context provider, use the useBounds hook to refresh the bounds, fit the camera, clip near/far planes, go to camera orientations or focus objects. refresh(object?: THREE.Object3D | THREE.Box3) will recalculate bounds, since this can be expensive only call it when you know the view has changed. clip sets the cameras near/far planes. to sets a position and target for the camera. fit zooms and centers the view.
function Foo() {
const bounds = useBounds()
useEffect(() => {
// Calculate scene bounds
bounds.refresh().clip().fit()
// Or, focus a specific object or box3
// bounds.refresh(ref.current).clip().fit()
// bounds.refresh(new THREE.Box3()).clip().fit()
// Or, send the camera to a specific orientatin
// bounds.to({position: [0, 10, 10], target: {[5, 5, 0]}})
<Bounds>
<Foo />
A component for applying a configurable camera shake effect. Currently only supports rotational camera shake. Pass a ref to recieve the ShakeController API.
If you use shake in combination with controls make sure to set the makeDefault prop on your controls, in that case you do not have to pass them via the controls prop.
const config = {
maxYaw: 0.1, // Max amount camera can yaw in either direction
maxPitch: 0.1, // Max amount camera can pitch in either direction
maxRoll: 0.1, // Max amount camera can roll in either direction
yawFrequency: 0.1, // Frequency of the the yaw rotation
pitchFrequency: 0.1, // Frequency of the pitch rotation
rollFrequency: 0.1, // Frequency of the roll rotation
intensity: 1, // initial intensity of the shake
decay: false, // should the intensity decay over time
decayRate: 0.65, // if decay = true this is the rate at which intensity will reduce at
controls: undefined, // if using orbit controls, pass a ref here so we can update the rotation
}
;<CameraShake {...config} />interface ShakeController {
getIntensity: () => number
setIntensity: (val: number) => void
}
This component makes its contents float or hover.

speed={1} // Animation speed, defaults to 1
rotationIntensity={1} // XYZ rotation intensity, defaults to 1
floatIntensity={1} // Up/down float intensity, works like a multiplier with floatingRange,defaults to 1

A planar, Y-up oriented shadow-catcher that can accumulate into soft shadows and has zero performance impact after all frames have accumulated. It can be temporal, it will accumulate over time, or instantaneous, which might be expensive depending on how many frames you render.
You must pair it with lightsources (and scene objects!) that cast shadows, which go into the children slot. Best use it with the RandomizedLight component, which jiggles a set of lights around, creating realistic raycast-like shadows and ambient occlusion.
