⚙️ Technology OverviewProgramming Languages & Frameworks
- Rendering: C++ for performance, WebGL/Three.js for in-browser 3D, Python for machine learning.
- API: Node.js and TypeScript enable scalable, async backend logic. Supports both GraphQL and REST.
- Data: Postgres for reliability; Python powers data pipelines and ML tasks.
3D Engine Architecture
- Scene Management: Modular design using a custom SceneManager.
- Shader System: Flexible loading via ShaderLoader and MaterialFactory.
- Visual Effects: Post-processing stack built with EffectsPipeline.
AI & Virtual Try-On
- Styling AI: Combines computer vision and user preference data to generate personalized outfits.
- Virtual Avatar: Users try outfits on lifelike digital mannequins.
- Physics-Based Fit: Realistic cloth simulation and pose estimation benchmarked for sub-centimeter accuracy.
Testing & Automation
- Test Coverage: Automated unit, integration, and E2E tests (85%+ coverage).
- Golden-Image Regression: Detects rendering drifts in outfit visuals.
- QA Automation: Cross-browser WebGL compatibility checks in CI.
