triplex User testing session notes

With a focus on resolving any blockers.

With Kenny

[x] port already in use https://github.com/try-triplex/triplex/issues/175
[x] leva types not found (fixed by upgrading Triplex version)
[x] component with any props throws #188
[x] define global variables in Vite HELLO_WORLD #177
[x] webgl shared array buffers support #186
[x] need to set canvas props #187
[x] components defined from React.FC don't paths resolved as expected #178
[x] adding elements to component that doesn't have a top level group or fragment throws #130
[x] bring out default values from jsdoc/code into form elements #default #176
[x] canvas being rendered inside other canvas throws #111
[x] if the provider component is invalid an error is not shown in triplex #183
[x] update provider guide to be exhaustive end-to-end #191
[x] https://github.com/try-triplex/triplex/issues/114
[ ] updating config should live update triplex editor (e.g. adding a provider!) #181
[ ] Children that are conditional aren't shown as nested children #34
[ ] saving a file in vscode for an edited by not yet persisted component gets triplex into a weird invalid state #180

Nice to have

[x] loading indicator for when a scene is loading would be good #182
[x] jumping to element should fit said element in the camera instead of being hardcoded #184
[ ] forcibly export components so they can be opened by triplex #179
[ ] required props should be needed to be set when opening #33
[ ] helper message saying nothing was rendered to the scene #185

Blockers

[x] user land controls affecting transform controls #114
[x] When a project doesn't have a triplex config it throws
[x] Runs into canvas / html element being opened inside another canvas problem
[x] Guide for project is using tsx not jsx in the example
[x] js example should tell how to get better analysis from triplex
[x] update leva controls guide to say Triplex + Leva can work together / default props in examples
[x] add step to prop tags
[x] getTypeNode is not a function (reading the bloom element component, react three post processing, boom + vignette)
[x] Tsconfig issue (didn't have allowJs)

Nice to have

[x] running into HTML errors trying to render
[x] Auto upgrading didn't work
[ ] active tab didn't appear as selected
[ ] loading triplex as an error and then switching doesn't clear the error so the scene doesn't render

From Wawa

[x] Provider guide says config.tsx instead of config.json
[x] Initialising javascript projects doesn’t set JSX
[x] Undo/redo should be global not local to the file else it’s too confusing
[x] Initialising project doesn’t detect what package manager to use
[x] Tsconfig that is generated doesn’t include the .triplex config folder so you get type errors
[x] Close project -> open project flow doesn’t work on macOS
[x] Children of some elements that are nested don’t look like children
[x] Entering user land camera can get stuck and look like you’re not in it without adding
[ ] Recent files would be great
[ ] Double clicking Experience element in App.jsx didn’t navigate to the component
[ ] Entering shadow camera would be useful (!)
[ ] Number input modifiers + tags should be respected by the transform controls
[ ] Setting rotation vector3 need to change all values to have it actually start changing values
