HelioTrip is an edutainment experience for all ages — a playful way to explore the solar system and learn through immersion.

Pilot your view in 3D first-person and drift through space: zoom past planets, follow orbits, and get a feel for scale and motion. Switch to rocket-style free flight when you want to steer yourself. Look up and explore constellations against the starfield.

The interface is available in Swedish and English. It works on desktop and mobile (portrait-first on phones). On touch devices, use pinch to zoom. Optional learning layers include quizzes, challenges, guided missions, and short constellation stories.

An interactive 3D visualization of the Artemis II mission — humanity's first crewed lunar flyby in over 50 years. Follow Orion's complete journey from launch to splashdown in real time.

The spacecraft's trajectory is derived from NASA's official ephemeris data (OEM format, J2000 reference frame), and the Moon's position is fetched live from the JPL Horizons API. Everything renders in a real-time 3D scene directly in your browser.

A fullstack monorepo with a React + Three.js frontend and a Hono API backend. Built through vibe coding with Claude and Gemini.

This was a very fun and challenging project where we put all we had learned in frontend and backend to use. We also learned even more about the importance of dividing code into components and agile teamwork.

After the project was submitted, I continued on my own to implement some features we did not have time for in the original project. I added a chat room and online players in the lobby, media queries for mobile, sound effects and more animations.

I also practiced using Copilot on my features afterwards to speed up development. It was an interesting learning experience and worked very well with our existing code base.
