Create an Infinite 3D Gallery with Three.js & VIVERSE

Overview

Imagine walking through an infinite 3D gallery, discovering photos created by other users—and even adding your own.

In this tutorial, we’ll build exactly that: a collaborative photo booth world where users can log in with their avatar, choose poses and accessories, take a photo, and see it appear instantly in the gallery.

You’ll learn how to combine Three.js, React Three Fiber, and the VIVERSE SDK to bring this interactive experience to life.

By the end of the video, you’ll know how to create, deploy, and share your own 3D worlds on the web—all for free.

Bringing Interactivity & Community to the Web

Building a 3D scene is one thing—but creating an interactive world that connects users together is where the web truly shines.

In traditional 3D web projects, developers often face the same limitations:

  • Setting up user authentication and avatars takes time.

  • Hosting user-generated content requires custom backend solutions.

  • Publishing and sharing 3D worlds often involves complex deployment pipelines.

This tutorial solves all of that by introducing VIVERSE, a free platform built for 3D creators. Using the VIVERSE SDK, you’ll learn how to:

  • Setting up an interactive 3D gallery with React Three Fiber

  • Implementing customizable avatars with poses and accessories

  • Creating a photo booth experience with backgrounds and props

  • Using VIVERSE SDK for authentication, physics, avatars, and leaderboard features

  • Deploying your 3D web experience to VIVERSE with the CLI

  • Building collaborative features with built-in physics and leaderboards

The Infinite 3D Gallery is more than just a project—it’s a demonstration of how to build collaborative, living experiences that blend creativity, interactivity, and community.

VIVERSE Platform (Sponsor):

VIVERSE provides a free platform for publishing interactive 3D web experiences with zero gatekeeping. Their pmndrs/viverse library gives you instant access to authentication, avatars, physics, and more for both vanilla Three.js and React Three Fiber projects.
