Three.js Renderers (WebGL and WebGPU) is one of 6 APIs that [Three.js](https://apis.io/providers/threejs/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include 3D, Graphics, Rendering, WebGL, and WebGPU. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

WebGLRenderer (default, ships in the main bundle) and the newer WebGPURenderer (under `three/webgpu`) draw the scene graph to a canvas. The Node Material System (TSL — Three.js Shading Language) provides a unified node-based authoring model that compiles to GLSL for WebGL and WGSL for WebGPU, plus addon SVG and CSS3D renderers for non-raster output.
