If we decide to add SuperquadricGeometry, I would prefer to add it as an addon so it should be placed in the examples/jsm/geometries directory.

In the meanwhile I suggest a different approach. Please host SuperquadricGeometry as a separate npm package and then create a new example that uses your library as an external dependency. We use this approach for other demos as well e.g. https://threejs.org/examples/?q=subdivision#webgl_modifier_subdivision
The import of the subvision library looks like so:
"three-subdivide": "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/three-subdivide@1.1.2/build/index.module.js"Your import could look like so:
"three-superquadric": "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/three-superquadric@1.0.0/build/index.module.js"Later in the code, the module is imported like so:
import { SuperquadricGeometry } from 'three-superquadric';

Closing. Please create a new PR based on the suggestion in #28036 (comment). |
Description
Feature proposal: SuperquadricGeometry
This pull request introduces a new geometry type to Three.js: Superquadric Geometry. Superquadrics offer a versatile and powerful way to create a wide range of complex shapes that go beyond traditional primitives like spheres and cubes.
I hope I covered all important requirements for a Three.js geometry (e.g. widthSegments/heightSegments or phi/theta).
Once the idea is accepted, I'm willing to add tests, docs and examples if necessary.
