skybox handling
Introduced the @kumitterer/aframe-click-drag-component for enhanced
interaction within the VR editor, enabling objects to be click-draggable
except for the skybox element. This selective application of click-drag
functionality enriches user experience by preserving the intended static
background. Additionally, refactored the A-Frame dependency management,
ensuring a coherent and up-to-date project structure.
- Upgraded and consolidated A-Frame imports across JavaScript files for
consistency.
- Excluded the "A-SKY" element from click-drag attributes to avoid
unintended interactions with the scene background.
- Added deep-equal package for enhanced object comparison
functionalities.
This update aims to streamline user interactions within 3D scenes,
offering more intuitive and immersive navigation capabilities.

- Implemented the media deletion functionality, allowing users to delete
media entries directly from the category view. This enhances the
manageability of content within the platform, providing a more intuitive
and streamlined experience for users managing their media.
- Transitioned from FontAwesome to Phosphor Icons, opting for a lighter
and more flexible icon library that better aligns with the design ethos
of the application. This change not only introduces a fresh aesthetic
but also contributes to slightly improved page load times due to the
decreased footprint of the icon library.
- Updated various UI elements across the platform to maintain a
consistent look and feel, including adjustments in the user area CSS to
ensure visual compatibility with the new icon set.
- Broadened the scope of `.gitignore` to cover all JavaScript files
within the static/js directory, eliminating potential version control
clutter caused by dynamically generated or dependency-included JS files.
These changes collectively aim to refine user interaction and ensure a
more cohesive visual presentation throughout the application.
- Added FontAwesome for enriched UI iconography.
- Implemented permission checks in scene edit view to prevent
unauthorized edits.
- Adjusted scene links in the category template for direct edit access,
streamlining the user workflow.
These changes aim at both enhancing the visual elements of the interface
and strengthening the security model by ensuring that only authorized
users can edit scenes. The direct edit links in the category view
further simplify navigation, making the system more intuitive for users.
Introduced significant updates to the user interface for editing VR
scenes, adding new CSS styles for a coherent and modern look.
Implemented data tables for robust content management in the user area,
now users can easily navigate through scenes and media with DataTables
integration. Expanded the API with category retrieval capabilities,
enabling dynamic content categorization.
The editor now seamlessly integrates into the UI with a sidebar for
properties editing, improving usability. The teleportation element
creation and modification logic has been significantly refined,
including a search-enabled dropdown for destination selection, making it
more user-friendly. Added thumbnail display for scenes and media in the
user area, enhancing content overview.
This update also introduced user area templates and routes, providing a
foundational structure for user content management functionality,
including categories and individual category views.
Refactored JavaScript imports to align with the new editor CSS and
adjusted scene loading to support embedded scenes, improving the
flexibility and usability of scene components.
