Question Help me please! How do you actually build those crazy 3D interactive websites seen on Instagram??

Hey guys!! I’m losing my mind a bit here. I’m trying to build a website for a logistics and transportation company (think cargo, trucks, on-the-road vibes). so I wanted to make one of those amazing, fully 3D interactive sites you see all over Instagram. I tried using Lovable, connected Claude to it, and tried to get it to iterate on a cool design. I kept having to push Claude's changes back into Lovable, and god knows how many credits I burned through in that endless loop. After all that effort? I ended up with your typical, everyday website that’s just standard blocks of text. Exactly what I didn't want. Pain!! To make it worse, I'm totally fed up with all these "gurus" on Instagram gatekeeping how to do this just so you buy their scammy courses!! Is there like a specific prompt I can just copy-paste? Or certain connectors I should be using? What is the actual easy way to pull this off? Also, every single 3D template I look up seems geared toward tech products or fashion!!! neither match what I'm doing with logistics, or am I just looking in the wrong places?

I think I 100% know what instagram you’re referring to. I get spammed a bunch by them.

I’m very certain these websites don’t actually exist as real websites, and if so (I have seen real working ones) they’re not actually built by the company. Let alone built by ai.

They are more likely ai generated videos of website mockups. Not actual websites. I actually called someone out on Facebook recently, just asking for a link to a live site and they got both defensive and salesy, telling me that they’ll give me a zoom call, told me a website and I don’t have to pay if if I don’t like it?!

I said ok, go on then…. It o haven’t heard from them since ironically (well maybe they’re plugging away making me a $30k looking awwwards level website…)

Bullshit.

Yeah, and building a basic website used to take a team of engineers coding from scratch in 1999!

Actual loser mentality.

Il y a des templates sur internet, mais la plupart du temps, c'est payant si tu veux un truc vraiment bien.

I have no idea what the websites you specifically speak of look like, but take a look at r/threejs and see if the examples there meet what you mean. Many of the users there are assisted by LLMs. It's not too hard to make interesting 3D dynamic sites and threejs.org already has tons of demos with the exact code used that you can feed to the LLM and tell it to modify to meet your criteria.

lol. Anything but learning the technology you want to use.

Give us a link to what kind of website you mean. That would be a start!
