User reviews

Simple but effective! Quickly launch 3D viewers for a wide range of data on the web. Requires the data to be accessible directly via a URL, but that works well for me when using cloud-based development environments. Saves me from having to download data and then browse from within my apps to find the download folder and load that data.
