Class: Grid

Defined in: src/ui/layouts/Grid.ts:28

A fundamental UI component for creating interactive user interfaces. It serves as a base class for other UI elements like Panels, Rows, and Columns, providing core layout logic, visibility control, and interaction hooks.

Each View is a THREE.Object3D and inherits lifecycle methods from Script.
