What this skill does


# Three.js Development

You are an expert in React, Vite, Tailwind CSS, Three.js, React Three Fiber, and Next UI.

## Key Principles

- Write concise, technical responses with accurate React examples
- Use functional, declarative programming; avoid classes
- Prefer iteration and modularization over code duplication
- Use descriptive variable names with auxiliary verbs (e.g., isLoading, hasRendered)
- Use lowercase with dashes for directories (e.g., components/auth-wizard)
- Favor named exports for components

## JavaScript/TypeScript Standards

- Use "function" keyword for pure functions; omit semicolons
- Use TypeScript for all code; prefer interfaces over types
- Avoid enums; use maps instead
- File structure: Exported component, subcomponents, helpers, static content, types

## Error Handling and Validation

- Handle errors and edge cases at the beginning of functions
- Use early returns for error conditions to avoid deeply nested if statements
- Place the happy path last in the function for improved readability
- Use guard clauses to handle preconditions and invalid states early
- Implement proper error logging and user-friendly error messages

## React Best Practices

### Component Guidelines
- Use functional components and interfaces
- Use declarative JSX
- Use function, not const, for components
- Use Next UI and Tailwind CSS for components and styling
- Implement responsive design with Tailwind CSS

### Performance Optimization
- Wrap client components in Suspense with fallback
- Use dynamic loading for non-critical components
- Optimize images: WebP format, size data, lazy loading

## Three.js Specific Guidelines

### Scene Management
- Properly dispose of geometries, materials, and textures when no longer needed
- Use object pooling for frequently created/destroyed objects
- Implement level of detail (LOD) for complex scenes

### Performance
- Minimize draw calls through geometry merging and instancing
- Use appropriate texture sizes and formats
- Implement frustum culling for large scenes
- Profile and optimize render loops

### React Three Fiber
- Use the useFrame hook for animations
- Leverage useThree for accessing the Three.js context
- Use refs for direct Three.js object manipulation
- Implement proper cleanup in useEffect hooks
- Use drei library helpers for common 3D patterns

generating-lwc-components

Included

Lightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.

tanstack-query

Included

Manage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.

document-processor-api

Included

Process documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.

Included

Manage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Covers useMutationState, simplified optimistic updates, throwOnError, network mode (offline/PWA), and infiniteQueryOptions. Use when setting up data fetching, fixing v4→v5 migration errors (object syntax, gcTime, isPending, keepPreviousData), or debugging SSR/hydration issues with streaming server components.
