Hello everyone!

I have been working on an independent project called Tinypoly for a while now. It is a full 3D modeling and texturing editor built with three.js, running entirely in the browser. The idea is simple: open a tab and start modeling in a few minutes.

**Modeling**

Primitives, vertex, edge and face editing, extrude, inset, loop cut, cutting and hole filling. There is also a sculpt mode with seven brushes (draw, grab, smooth, inflate, flatten, pinch and crease).

**Texture editor**

Works like an image editor: layers, brush, eraser, fill, filters and effects, text layers, shape layers and vector (SVG) layers, plus noise and ambient occlusion generation. Anything you paint shows up on the model right away.

**UV and materials**

Automatic unwrap or smart projection, manual UV editing and UV map export. PBR materials with map and property tweaking, plus custom shaders when you want more control.

**Render mode**

GPU path tracing for the final image: HDRI environments, depth of field, exposure, tone mapping and PNG export.

**Modules**

Beyond regular modeling, the editor comes with modules that build geometry for you:

**Building:** floor plans with walls, floors, doors, windows, stairs and roofs

**Environment:** low-poly trees, ivy, sky and water with waves that react to what is floating on them

**Voxel:** voxel models and voxel terrain with direct editing

**Import and export**

Models in OBJ, GLTF, GLB and STL, textures in PSD, DDS and TGA. Export everything together or one file per object.

**Free account (optional)**

You can use the whole editor without an account. With one, your projects are saved to the cloud, you can invite other people to edit with you, generate a public view link and publish your creations to the community.

It is an independent, free project, and any feedback or criticism is very welcome.
