Thanks for this helpful report and interesting progress John.

Certainly following transpiler patterns is one way for us to keep programming idioms and documentation consistently defined, Java/JavaScript/TypeScript.

The JSweet warnings posted below are sensible improvements and all fixed.  Further refinements welcome.

Am happy to report deployment of an updated release of X3DJSAIL providing those changes.

[2] X3D Java Scene Access Interface Library (X3DJSAIL)
     supports programmers with standards-based X3D Java interfaces and objects, all as open source.
     https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html

Improved documentation and fixed a bug in that was passing default values for bbox fields during stylesheet conversions to Java, JSON, Python and Turtle.

Added a section describing Configuration Properties, note property rename/reversal showDefaultAttributes -> stripDefaultAttributes (for consistency with stripTrailingZeroes).

[3] X3DJSAIL: Configuration Properties
     https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html#ConfigurationProperties
     https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/examples/X3DJSAIL.properties
     https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.properties.template

Also tested multiple new codebases with this release:

[4] OpenJDK 13.0.2
     https://jdk.java.net/13

[5] Savage Developers Guide: Java
     https://savage.nps.edu/Savage/developers.html#Java

[6] Apache Netbeans 11.3
     https://netbeans.apache.org

[7] Savage Developers Guide: NetBeans
     https://savage.nps.edu/Savage/developers.html#NetBeans

[8] Blender 2.82a
     http://www.blender3d.org

[9] X3DJSAIL: Blender
     https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html#Blender

[10] Meshlab
      https://www.meshlab.net

[11] Meshlab-2020.03 release
      https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/releases

[12] X3DJSAIL: MeshLab
      https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html#MeshLab

The Meshlab release is particularly notable since it has been years since a public update was available.  Cool.
