# Unicorn Studio — No-code WebGL Scenes (Embed/SDK) Skill
## When to use
- Designers want custom WebGL visuals without hand-coding shaders/three.js
- You need “designed” effects layered with text/images/video, with built-in interactivity
- Site builders: Framer, Webflow, Wix, Figma Sites, etc.
## What it is
- A scene editor (layers + effects + events) that exports:
- Embed via Unicorn Studio SDK (small JS library)
- Or JSON/code export for faster/self-hosted loading (plan-dependent)
## Key embed patterns
- Load SDK (can be in `` or footer depending on above-the-fold):
- UMD from jsDelivr (versioned)
- Call `UnicornStudio.init()` once DOM is ready
- Add attributes to a container element:
- `data-us-project="PROJECT_ID"`
- Optional performance/behavior params:
- `data-us-scale` (render scale)
- `data-us-dpi` (resolution multiplier)
- `data-us-fps` (cap FPS)
- `data-us-lazyload="true"`
- `data-us-production="true"`
- Optional JSON source:
- `data-us-project-src="https://.../scene.json.txt"`
## Events (authoring-side)
- Appear (entrance), Scroll (progress/velocity), Hover, Mousemove
- Use events for “feels interactive” without writing JS.
## Common pitfalls
- Container has no defined dimensions → scene won’t display
- Ensure the element with `data-us-project` has width/height.
- Too many scenes on one page → WebGL context limits + memory
- Prefer <10 scenes/page; WebGL context max ~16.
- Performance on low-end devices
- Use `data-us-scale`/`data-us-dpi`/`data-us-fps`; reduce dynamic layers/effects.
- Site builder preview limitations
- Many builders won’t render in edit mode; must preview/publish to see it.
## Quick recipes
### 1) Basic embed container
```html
```
### 2) Performance-first embed
```html
```
## What to ask the user
- Target platform: Webflow / Framer / coded site?
- Is the scene above-the-fold? (affects script placement and lazyload)
- Mobile support requirement + acceptable quality/FPS
- Number of scenes on the page and whether JSON export is available
