How to render three.js server-side?

Question

How can I render three.js server side? At the moment our website renders player avatars using three.js locally, however that issues security things as well as potential bugs wit

Answer 1

There are several discussions about using three.js on node.js on the three.js GitHub page. Check for example:

• Use Three.js functions in node.js
• node.js server rendering with node-webgl and/or headless-gl

There is also this question on stackoverflow which could be considered a duplicate of your question.

This one is dealing with a project called node-three.js on GitHub. It will support rendering in three.js on node.js. Not sure if it does exactly what you want (I have no first hand experience with this library) but worth checking it out I guess.
