    Hello. I recently learned javascript and am looking to develop games with it. I want to create a 3d game.

    I have a few questions about that.

    1. Can you program a 3d game in javascript with WebGL (3d javascript API) and export it to console format? (I'm already familiar with the licenses needed for that feature)

    2. If you cannot program with WebGL, then how would one handle 3D programming in javascript? (does Unity3D have its own library/api for 3d javascript programming?)

    Thanks

    No.

    Unity doesn't use web Javascript. It uses a custom language commonly called Unityscript, which is similar to ActionScript3 (crossed with C#). Go here to learn about Unity: https://unity3d.com/learn
