I've been building a new project for a client that's floor plan designer with a 3D viewer. Specfically, the client wants an easy-to-use 2D blueprint designer with the ability to traverse the proposed room layout in 3D.

The previous generation of this tool used Fabric.js to provide only the 2D blueprinting. I found react-planner on GitHub as a proposed solution for an update, but the tooling is a bit too general purpose and in-depth for our users.

I've been really interested in expanding my (very little) ThreeJS knowledge after coming across ThreeJS Journey on BlueSky and taking a closer look at React Three Fiber that I made the decision to build-from-scratch. The project will take more effort, but the learning opportunities for me make it worthwhile.

Because Konva has React bindings, a decent community, an active Discord, and (most importantly) an active GitHub, I chose that over Fabric for this new tool.
