3D websites: impact, usability and performance

When 3D helps explain an idea, and how to check it does not get in the visitor’s way.

Portfolio visual example; not research data.

What the documentation says

WebGL renders graphics in the browser. Page experience contributes to Google ranking, but good scores do not guarantee a top position. [1] [2]

How I would apply it

My recommendation: choose one element that explains a product or demonstrates a skill. Opening hours and contact details should remain accessible without the scene.

Before you start

Your working checklist — selections stay on this page only.
