Getting started with marching cubes in three.js

Question

I am new to Three.js and looking for a tutorial to get me started on how to use Marching Cubes in three.js. Some of the projects I have seen so far in three.js which use this are a bit complicated for me, so a simple tutorial would be nice.

Thank you.

Answer 1

Like yourself, I was looking for a non-metaballs example of the Marching Cubes algorithm -- I am particularly interested in graphing implicitly defined surfaces. Since I couldn't find one, I wrote an introductory Marching Cubes example that uses Three.js and posted it at:
