Still a work in progress.

Generates the shapes and then serializes them to a JSON file with a list of
|
||
|
vertices (`positions`) and a list of triangle faces (`cells`) that index into
|
||
|
the list of vertices. Suitable for input into [Three.js's
|
||
|
BufferGeometry](https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/core/BufferGeometry) or
|
||
|
[regl](https://github.com/regl-project/regl/blob/gh-pages/example/camera.js).

Icosahedrons can be generated significantly faster than Three.js's version in
|
||
|
JavaScript (which I pretty much copied into Rust).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Trunacated icosahedrons (I call them hexspheres) are a bit slower to generate
|
||
|
since they are made by generating a icosahedron and then subdividing it into
|
||
|
hexagon and pentagon faces. I still have some work to do to improve that code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I'm still having issues rendering hexspheres of detail level 5 and higher and
|
||
|
icosahedrons of detail level of 7 and higher, so I'm not sure if those are
|
||
|
accurate.
