X_ITE X3D Browser
Introduction
X_ITE is a robust X3D JavaScript WebGL browser that is compatible with all major web browsers and can be used as a full standard X3D browser as well as a glTF and VRML viewer and for other 3D file formats.

Using X_ITE with a CDN
Using a CDN improves website performance, reliability, and security by caching content closer to users, distributing traffic loads, and providing protection against attacks.
If you are going to use X_ITE in a production environment, you should use a fixed version of X_ITE. You can get a list of all available versions here on npm.
jsDelivr CDN
jsDelivr is an open-source content delivery network (CDN) renowned for its no-cost access, swift performance, and reliable service.
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/x_ite@10.5.9/dist/x_ite.min.js"></script>
<!-- or as ES module for use in scripts -->
<script type="module">
import X3D from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/x_ite@10.5.9/dist/x_ite.min.mjs";
</script>
Info: It is no longer necessary to include the CSS file.
Get it from NPM
To install, use the following command:
$ npm install x_ite
Maybe you are curious now how to use X_ITE with Electron?
Usage
This script initializes an X3D canvas within an HTML page, configuring it to contain a scene, a camera and a geometric cube with default material properties. It then animates the rotation of the cube within the scene, ensuring that the camera captures the dynamic action.

Pure JavaScript
The same scene can also be created using pure JavaScript:
<script type="module">
import X3D from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/x_ite@10.5.9/dist/x_ite.min.mjs";
const
browser = X3D .getBrowser (),
scene = browser .currentScene;
scene .setProfile (browser .getProfile ("Interchange"));
scene .addComponent (browser .getComponent ("Interpolation", 1));
await browser .loadComponents (scene);
// Viewpoint
const viewpointNode = scene .createNode ("Viewpoint");
viewpointNode .set_bind = true;
viewpointNode .description = "Initial View";
viewpointNode .position = new X3D .SFVec3f (2.869677, 3.854335, 8.769781);
viewpointNode .orientation = new X3D .SFRotation (-0.7765887, 0.6177187, 0.1238285, 0.5052317);
scene .rootNodes .push (viewpointNode);
// Box
const
transformNode = scene .createNode ("Transform"),
shapeNode = scene .createNode ("Shape"),
appearanceNode = scene .createNode ("Appearance"),
materialNode = scene .createNode ("Material"),
boxNode = scene .createNode ("Box");
appearanceNode .material = materialNode;
shapeNode .appearance = appearanceNode;
shapeNode .geometry = boxNode;
transformNode .children .push (shapeNode);
scene .rootNodes .push (transformNode);
// Give the node a name if you like.
scene .addNamedNode ("Box", transformNode);
// Animation
const
timeSensorNode = scene .createNode ("TimeSensor"),
interpolatorNode = scene .createNode ("OrientationInterpolator");
timeSensorNode .cycleInterval = 10;
timeSensorNode .loop = true;
for (let i = 0; i < 5; ++ i)
{
interpolatorNode .key [i] = i / 4;
interpolatorNode .keyValue [i] = new X3D .SFRotation (0, 1, 0, Math .PI * i / 2);
}
scene .rootNodes .push (timeSensorNode, interpolatorNode);
// Routes
scene .addRoute (timeSensorNode, "fraction_changed", interpolatorNode, "set_fraction");
scene .addRoute (interpolatorNode, "value_changed", transformNode, "set_rotation");
