ignifx

Run npx @ignifx/cli@latest my-game with a template like 2d-topdown or 3d-third-person, then pnpm install and pnpm dev. In code, call createApp with a canvas, register your Script classes, build entities, and await app.start().

Extend Script.define with a schema of serialized fields, set a namespaced static typeId like "mygame/Mover", and implement lifecycle callbacks such as update(dt). Register the class with app.registerComponents before loading any scene that uses it.

No, ignifx renders exclusively through WebGPU with no WebGL fallback. It supports Chrome/Edge 113+, Safari 26+, and Firefox 141+ on Windows; createApp rejects with IGX-0701 when no adapter is available.

Yes, call createApp with headless: true and drive frames with app.step(dt), optionally using createManualClock. Physics, input simulation, and audio all run headless, making gameplay logic testable in Node 24.

A material family that did not exist when the scene was registered takes Babylon Lite's runtime build path, adding up to three frames before the mesh appears. Call app.renderer.warmUp with the materials for anything loaded after start.

Yes, scaffold with the --desktop flag and register the electron() extension. The @ignifx/electron package provides createGameWindow, a sandboxed preload bridge, file-system storage, and handles the required WebGPU flags.
