README

Excerpt

CesiumJS Entities & DataSources

Version baseline: CesiumJS 1.143 -- ES module imports: import { ... } from "cesium"; Ownership rule: *Graphics classes belong here; *Geometry classes belong in cesiumjs-primitives. Properties (SampledProperty, CallbackProperty, MaterialProperty subtypes) belong in cesiumjs-time-properties.

Architecture

The Entity API is the high-level, data-driven layer of CesiumJS. Entities combine position, orientation, and one or more Graphics types into a single object managed by an EntityCollection. DataSources load external formats (GeoJSON, KML, CZML, GPX) and populate an EntityCollection automatically. Visualizers and GeometryUpdaters translate Entity descriptions into Primitives each frame.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
