Then, before starting the project, you will learn step by step on how to find and download 3D models from websites like Sketchfab and Clara IO since you will need them to be integrated to your portfolio website. Afterward, you will also be guided step by step on how to prepare your IDE and Javascript libraries. Once you’ve learnt all necessary knowledge about Three JS, you will enter the main section of the course which is the project section where you will be guided step by step on how to build and design 3D portfolio websites using Three JS and you will spend most of your time here. Once the 3D portfolio website has been built, you will be conducting testing to make sure that the website has been fully functioning and the website has a high quality user interface. There will be four main testing objectives, those are functionality testing, user experience testing, performance testing, and compatibility testing.

First of all, we need to ask ourselves these questions: why should we learn how to build a portfolio website using Three JS? And what is the benefit of integrating 3D models to our website? Well, there are a lot of answers to those questions, firstly, the job market is getting more and more competitive, therefore, to get hired or to get clients, you will need to find the most effective strategy to be able to stand out from the crowds and the easiest way to do it is by being different in a positive way. Building a 3D portfolio website is one of many things you should consider as it will potentially set you apart from your other competitors. In addition to that, by presenting your projects in such a unique way, your future employers or clients will most likely be impressed with your portfolio website and it also increases your chance of getting hired very significantly as they see values that you have that other candidates do not have. Last but not least, learning how to build 3D websites using Javascript and Three JS is definitely a high demand skill set in the job market as it will enable you to build and design a lot of cool projects, such as virtual real estate, virtual classroom, 3D E-commerce marketplace, interactive map, and still many more.
