Why it exists

Pick an approach minimum and a runway lighting system, then fly the approach and watch what you would actually see out of the window as altitude and distance wind down.

Built in WebGL for pilots learning to recognise ALSF-II, MALSR and the rest at decision height. Described by its author as 100 percent vibe-coded.

I tried this on my phone during a break and the 3D approach rendering held up fine even on mobile data, which surprised me. Rotating the view to check runway lighting angles felt natural. My only gripe is that some menu buttons are a bit small for one-handed use on a standard sized screen. Still, as a training reference tool it does what it says without extra clutter.
