How to animate grass and alpha clipped grass in react three fiber using GLSL
This is the perfect way to animate grass which is created using alpha clipped planes using alpha maps. This can easily be adapted to follow an origin or empty, which would signify the wind in a scene. Follow previous tutorials to instance grass onto a plane from blender. This would be the precursor to animating this grass!

Creating An Amazing Particle Transition In Blender and Exporting to React Three Fiber
Highlighting a workflow from blender to React Three Fiber (R3F) for morphing particles from different shapes. Utilizing images for storing data in blender and then consuming in a React Three Fiber / Threejs shader.
Exporting Particle Animations From Blender via Images for use in R3F and Three.js
Exporting particle animations from blender to a r3f project. We use the particle simulation in blender, run an export script to save location data in images (PNG's) and then combine the images into a single large image. This has great potential for attaching textures to the points material for fire/smoke/snow or sand storms.
