Hi Team! I am just starting out and use vsCode as my editor. I am a seasoned C# programmer however first time using three.js. I would like to know how I can get intellisense working correctly for my project. I am not using node.js or anything fancy - just a simple site with an index.html loading i…

Do you mean intellisense for three.js specifically? This was previously asked here: [image] Three.js autocomplete with VS Code Questions I used this tutorial to add intellisense with Typings to VS Code. You do need node.js installed so that you can use npm. The final st…

Hi! That’s great! It got me most of the way there :slight_smile: I still have problems with using global variables not using intellisense, even though it can see it is of a type. Global Type [global%20type] No Intellisense [global%20intellisense] Local Variable [local%20variable] Even the h…

Excuse me, my native language is Spanish, I would really appreciate it if you make a video showing the procedure so that intellicence works in VScode with Three.Js

So, is everyone coding blindly in VSCode without any THREE.js autocompletion / code hinting / intellisence when using THREE ES6 modules? (I do, the last 2 weeks, and it’s not pretty). I have posted a question on stackoverflow but I’m not getting any answers. Should I ditch VSCode for another …

Thanks, but I have tried this many times in all kinds of different ways and conditions, and it doesn’t work at all in my case. How do you handle modules, do you use rollup or other module bundler? I am not using any yet, and (for the time being) I’ve just added paths on a couple of loaders inside …

[image] drcmda: npm install @types/three --save-dev . After that it should work. This has never worked for me, even after considerable fiddling with configs. @drcmda does it work for you in .js files for just .tsx?

We should make an optional type definitions file that declares a THREE global in case people don’t use the esm and load three using a script tag instead. That should solve this issue. The type definitions work fine, but AFAIK only if you import three modules yourself and use things like rollup to m…
