Use this skill when understanding how PixiJS v8 renders frames: the systems-and-pipes renderer, the render loop, and how the library adapts to different environments. Covers WebGLRenderer/WebGPURenderer/CanvasRenderer selection, renderer.render() pipeline, environment detection, rendering into RenderTextures and RenderTargets (flipY, mipLevel, layer, bind/push/pop, copyDepthTexture), WebGL context loss and WebGPU device loss recovery, and pointers to per-topic deep dives. Triggers on: renderer, WebGL, WebGPU, Canvas, render loop, render pipeline, systems, environments, autoDetectRenderer, RenderTexture, RenderTarget, render to texture, flipY, mipLevel, layer, 3D texture, depth slice, renderTarget.bind, copyToTexture, copyDepthTexture, depth-only, WebGLLoader, WebGPULoader, CanvasLoader, RendererLoader, lazy-load renderer systems, code splitting, context lost, webglcontextlost, device lost, GPUDevice.lost.
