+# CONVERSION_NOTES.md
+
+The following conversion notes are provided to assist 
+in the conversion of the app from `three.js` to `react-three-fiber` and `drei`
+
+------------------------
+
+## Console Component
+**The following was output by chatGPT w/ attached docs from the relevant libraries.**
+
+------------------------
+
+To convert this code to use `react-three-fiber` and `drei`, you would need to create a `React` component that uses `CanvasTexture` from `drei`.
+
+Here's how you could do it:
+
+```js
+import React, { useRef, useEffect } from 'react';
+import { CanvasTexture } from '@react-three/drei';
+
+function ConsoleTexture({ width, height, text }) {
+  // Create a ref to store the canvas element
+  const canvasRef = useRef();
+
+  // Use the useEffect hook to perform side effects
+  useEffect(() => {
+    // Get the canvas element from the ref
+    const canvas = canvasRef.current;
+
+    // Get the 2D rendering context from the canvas
+    const context = canvas.getContext('2d');
+
+    // Set the fill style to black
+    context.fillStyle = '#000';
+
+    // Fill the entire canvas with the fill style
+    context.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
+
+    // Set the font style and color for the text
+    context.font = 'bold 24px Menlo,Lucida Console,Courier New';
+    context.fillStyle = '#fff';
+
+    // Draw the text on the canvas at position (20, 40)
+    context.fillText(text, 20, 40);
+
+    // Create a new texture from the canvas
+    const texture = new CanvasTexture(canvas);
+
+    // Mark the texture as needing an update
+    texture.needsUpdate = true;
+
+    // Return a cleanup function to dispose of the texture
+    // when the component unmounts
+    return () => {
+      texture.dispose();
+    };
+  }, [width, height, text]); // Run effect whenever width, height, or text changes
+
+  // Render a hidden canvas element
+  return (
+    <canvas
+      ref={canvasRef}
+      width={width}
+      height={height}
+      style={{ display: 'none' }} />
+  )
+}
+
+// Export the ConsoleTexture component
+export default ConsoleTexture;
+```

+
+## Index.html Application
+**The following was output by chatGPT w/ attached docs from the relevant libraries.**
+
+------------------------
+
+I have been trying to get chatGPT to spit out code for the main application but it does not seem to want to co-operate. It keeps spitting back boilerplate code that is unrelated to the code here.
