In Java, the Leaf node is an abstract class for all scene graph nodes that have no children. Leaf nodes specify lights, geometry, and sounds. They specify special linking and instancing abilities for sharing scene graphs and provide a view platform for positioning and orienting a view in the virtual world.<ref>{{cite web |date=2 April 2001|url=https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17802_01/j2se/javase/technologies/desktop/java3d/forDevelopers/J3D_1_3_API/j3dapi/javax/media/j3d/Leaf.html |title=Class Leaf |website= Docs.Oracle |access-date=23 May 2022}}</ref>
