Just to supplement Tom's answer, if you go the route of having ChimeraX as a backend, you can have it generate files that can be directly manipulated as 3D renderings in the browser, as described here: https--www.rbvi.ucsf.edu-chimerax-data-gltf-viewer-may2023 <https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/data/gltf-viewer-may2023/>

Hi Marius,
ChimeraX is written in Python and C++ and runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. It will not run in a web browser since there is no JavaScript implementation of ChimeraX. You would have to provide a server that runs ChimeraX on one of the supported operating systems and make a web page that talks to that server, a complex task. That is what the NIH 3D web site does to create output of STL or GLTF from atomic models submitted through the web browser.

Hi I have been using ChimeraX for some time to generate .stl files and print various molecules and molecular scenes. I planning/working on making the pdb to stl file conversion semi-automatic and more user friendly by offering the users some predefined 3D-printable renderings of the molecule of their choice as well as some simple push-buttons that would allow them to do some very simple customisation in the renderings. Everything needs to be packaged in a simple to acces web-page that can be used by educators and students . In a way similar to how NIHPresets work, but in a webpage. Or how NIH 3D QuickSubmit works, but more interactive. Is there a way to embed ChimeraX into web pages as it can be done with, for example, with JSmol (Jmol)? If yes, could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks --------- Marius Mihasan, PhD. Habil.
