ThreeUI and Opus 5: Generating 3D Websites from Video References

X postMeng ToNews

Designer Meng To demonstrates how Claude Opus 5 creates interactive three.js and Blender product pages based on video references, accompanying the launch of his ThreeUI project.

Key points

  1. Meng To claims Opus 5 can take video references and directly build three.js or Blender experiences, such as exploded views and wireframes.
  2. Lighting, textures, and details can be iteratively enhanced using follow-up prompts.
  3. His design team is migrating landing pages from images and videos to three.js, arguing that code-based sites are lighter and allow AI agents to iterate more precisely.
  4. The approach blends standard HTML with 3D elements, avoiding negative impacts on SEO.
  5. His open-source project ThreeUI reached 100,000 views per day and gained 3,800 GitHub stars within four days.

Why it matters

Interactive 3D on the web has historically required specialised 3D skills and heavy media assets. AI models capable of generating procedural three.js code from simple video references lower that barrier significantly.

Analysis

Meng To showcases a shift from asset-heavy landing pages toward procedural, code-driven 3D scenes using three.js. Because code is directly editable by AI models like Opus 5, prompt-based adjustments to lighting, meshes, and motion become straightforward. The project ThreeUI serves as a template repository designed for agent-assisted customisation, demonstrating practical applications of generative AI in modern frontend design.

Opus 5 is so good at creating these exploded-view and wireframe three.js product sites. Give it a video reference and it can build the experience directly in three.js or Blender. Then keep improving the details, textures, and lighting with follow-up prompts. I got our entire t.co/sJWFrCoxSx t.co/cJKKtI1hl0

  5. @terenzeyuen the future of web design (and even games) is gonna be crazy with three.js
  6. @DoopySmoo can you try a vpn? i heard it might be region-based
  7. @RayFernando1337 Anytime Ray! DM is open. Also, thanks so much for getting a sub!
  8. @visualizedigitl SEO is just the same. this is not all three.js, but a mix between html and 3d.
  9. @Fortytwo____ yep tested on codex too
