== History ==
Three.js was first released by Ricardo Cabello on GitHub in April 2010.<ref name="firstcommit" /> The origins of the library can be traced back to his involvement with the [[demoscene]] in the early 2000s.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXWYOF4VibE|author=NVScene|publisher=YouTube|title=NVScene 2015 Session: Reinventing The Wheel - One Last Time (Ricardo Cabello)|date=24 March 2015 }}</ref> The code was originally developed in the [[ActionScript]] language used by [[Adobe Flash]], later being ported to JavaScript in 2009. In Cabello's mind, there were two strong points that justified the shift away from ActionScript: Firstly, JavaScript provided greater platform independence. Secondly, applications written in JavaScript would not need to be compiled by the developer beforehand, unlike Flash applications.
Additional contributions by Cabello include API design, CanvasRenderer, SVGRenderer, and being responsible for merging the commits by the various contributors into the project.
