I added a few methods to three-orbit-controls to be able to manually define phi or theta and be able to rotate to a given point.

// rotation in Y
controls.setAzimuthalAngle(theta);

// rotation in X
controls.setPolarAngle(phi);

"How do I get started with Node?" is a commonly heard question in #Node.js. This gist is an attempt to compile some of the answers to that question. It's a perpetual work-in-progress.

And if this list didn't quite answer your questions, I'm available for tutoring and code review! A donation is also welcome :)

Setting expectations

Before you get started learning about JavaScript and Node.js, there's one very important article you need to read: Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years.

Understand that it's going to take time to learn Node.js, just like it would take time to learn any other specialized topic - and that you're not going to learn effectively just by reading things, or following tutorials or courses. _Get out there and build things!

/**
 * $.unserialize
 *
 * Takes a string in format "param1=value1&param2=value2" and returns an object { param1: 'value1', param2: 'value2' }. If the "param1" ends with "[]" the param is treated as an array.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * Input:  param1=value1&param2=value2
 * Return: { param1 : value1, param2: value2 }
