PuzzleGen is a javascript library intended to render WCA puzzles. Colors can be customized, or scrambles can be applied to make references for solve guides or scramble previews. It's heavily inspired by visualcube and twistysim. My first go at this was porting visuacube to javascript here. But in order to get all the functionality desired, I had to completely rewrite from scratch.
PuzzleGen is built to be customizable, so if desired functionality can be extended to use cases other than embedding scramble previews in web pages.
