Developer Builds AI-Assisted Interactive 3D Science Museum with Six Themed Exhibits

A developer has built Loupe, an interactive digital museum featuring six science exhibits covering topics such as space, dinosaurs, human evolution, and the Apollo 11 lunar descent. Each exhibit uses a distinct interaction model — from scrollable mission narratives to explorable 3D planetary surfaces — designed to match its subject matter. The project was built using a stack that includes Next.js, React Three Fiber, Three.js, GSAP, and Zustand, with AI tools Claude and Codex assisting throughout development. The application separates content, logic, and components into distinct layers to manage the complexity of interactive 3D experiences in the browser. The developer shared the project and its architecture on DEV Community to illustrate how AI coding agents can support ambitious, non-standard web applications beyond basic CRUD functionality.
