Jack Ma's and SCMP's neutrality is a bit up in the air at the moment, I feel. Last time I looked at that story it was just trying to sow doubt, without any evidence to the contrary. I'm sure you'd inform us in great detail if that had changed.
There's no need to learn typescript. You can use it like a good old js library by including it in script tag. But you're right that perhaps the messaging should be clearer.
pts-starter-kit comes with an example demo (in index.html). Does that work for you?
Please file an issue and we will figure out from there. Thanks for trying it out!
Yes! It first started as Pt (in coffeescript) a few years ago, and it's an experimental project to explore "a single point". Last year I started rewriting everything from scratch, and focus more on sets of points and how functions can transform them.
The performance should be a bit better (with Float32Array) though I haven't compared them.
Thank you! Yes, I want to make sure the lib is lightweight and easy to use for beginners -- just include a script and ready to go. There's of course a babel-ES6-TS-something for experts too :)
