I built S3D-K, a 3D engine that compresses JS using glyphs. Went from 10k --&gt; 900 lines on my own project. Still early stage but promising!<br> I can't say much more for now — it's highly experimental and still in active development.<br> 🔗 <a href="https://github.com/S3DKdev/S3D-K" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/S3DKdev/S3D-K</a><br> Drop a ⭐ if you like it!</p> webassembly rust opensource javascript
