Thanks for this!

I did see the tweet but I'm still kind of shy, especially on social media 🙈
I recently started writing to practise my writing skills and keep track of the stuff I learn at the same time. But recently I've started to feel the desire to just explorer threejs in combination with WebGL and write about that. In the back of my mind I know I shouldn't care about this but I'm afraid that the topic may be way too niche for several posts. What are your opinions on writing on something niche vs writing something for a broader audience?

For sure!

I think that's a super cool blog post, I would read it! Even if it is niche, you're still establishing yourself as an expert on those topics which can be helpful careerwise! And sometimes more advanced content like that can really take off!

Chiming in here as a niche blogger. Niche blog posting is something I do and I've found great success in doing it! Niche things may not grow as quickly, but it's really helpful for people to find you.

That's a very good point. The main reason I want to write about is because I have trouble finding beginner friendly resources myself. Thanks for your help 😊
