Contributing

Contributions are welcome — whether it's a new 3D model, a feature, or a bug fix.

Add a model

1. Place your file(s) in public/models/
2. Open a pull request

Keep models low-poly and reasonably sized (aim for <5 MB).

Add a feature

• Read docs/000.overview.md for the design philosophy
• Read docs/002.settings.md for the settings registry contract
• Every configurable setting must be registered and URL-serializable
• Keep it simple — no frameworks, no continuous render loops
