How to convert this geometry opengl code to three.js?

Hi there, I am trying to follow this tutorial, where they show how to make a bending cylinder in C and opengl (at Edit2) Would anyone who knows C be willing to turn this into a three.js codepen? Or explain how to do it in three.js

How to bend a cylindrical geometry by X degrees at X height (and do it multiple times)

Hi there, i’m working on this pen where i’m attempting to bend a long geometry at X height by X degrees and for X area of effect. https://codepen.io/funianrun/pen/QzQQJB I’ve managed to bend it in a long arcing motion. However i’d like to confine the bend to only a section of the cylinder and not the entire thing. In my main project, the geometry is bent after applying effects like waves, and after extruding it from a bezier curve created in a 2D canvas. I tried lerping from the original ve…
