What is Aiden3DRenderer and how do I install it?

It's a Python lib for real-time 3D rendering via functions and shaders. Pip install from GitHub, run the examples — five minutes tops.

Can Aiden3DRenderer replace Unity for learning 3D graphics?

Not for games, but killer for math fundamentals and shaders. Ditch the UI bloat; code the pipeline yourself.

Is Aiden3DRenderer fast enough for complex scenes?

Handles 50x50 grids smooth, OBJs, physics. Scale via GPU shaders — yes for education, no for AAA.
