🚧 Work in process.
Interactive polyhedra explorer with animated transformations. This project is focused on regular convex polyhedra and derivation of larger polyhedra via Conway polyhedron notation. All transformations are symmetry-preserving and all resulting elements (faces, edges, vertices) are grouped into rotation orbits and are colored by default with respect to them.
Prototype is deployed at https://polyhedron.me
