[x3d-public] file converter based on JavaScript

[John Carlson]

Here's the matrix of relevant code:

https://github.com/coderextreme/X3DJSONLD/blob/master/src/main/node/convertJsonToStl.js

https://github.com/coderextreme/X3DJSONLD/blob/master/src/main/node/convertPlyToJson.js
https://github.com/coderextreme/X3DJSONLD/blob/master/src/main/node/convertStlToJson.js

Note that these run in browser, so no need for a docker image, jupyter, or
complex setups.
