## The Hook

Babylon.js is the production-grade open 3D engine Microsoft, Mojang, and Nike already shipped.

## What's Good

Apache-2.0. Full 3D engine: scenes, physics, loaders, playground. Homepage is Babylon.js 9. Named experiences: Minecraft Classic, Nike By You, Temple Run 2, Xbox Design Lab. Registry package @babylonjs/core.

## The Catch

Heavier than a 2D starter. docs.babylonjs.com (with an s) has returned 500; working docs host is doc.babylonjs.com. Editor pricing was not verified here, so it is omitted.

## Verdict

The open 3D game and rendering engine for the web. Apache-2.0, on v9.
