Needle

@NeedleTools @Shopify Lots of progress - check the video below, mainly focusing on resourceview and interactive preview - not everything works perfectly yet and I got a few more things I'd like to add before pushing it out but the list gets smaller

So many debugging and dev goodies coming to Needle Inspector - along with full window/panel management, workspaces, improved inspector UI and much more! Can't wait to share this update! @NeedleTools #threejs

Also working on a resource view for Needle Inspector. Easily which object's are still being held in memory (they disappear once the GC runs) The next update will be huge! @NeedleTools #threejs #webdev

Improved Needle Inspector performance even more for large nested objects. Did you know that you can step and inspect into any object deeply with live property updates? @NeedleTools

Aaaaand another update, this time bumping support to three.js 185 (latest) 🤠 (Also: love the @threejsconf website, so cute!) @NeedleTools #threejs

Needle Inspector 1.8.0 is available now and brings performance improvements / scene leak detection and FastHDR environment maps! @NeedleTools #threejs #webdev
