Hi all, I am a newbie to paraview.  
By following this example: _`https://github.com/Kitware/web-project-templates/tree/master/vue-vtkjs-pvw-template`_  
I have reimplemented the example from Vuejs to React to show cone example (I am more familar with React)  
Now, I want to visualize point cloud data remotely by using paraview.web. what steps should I follow?

Btw, I have tried to visualize the.ply data in Visualizer app and the pointcloud is shown by using PointGaussian surface.

Any advices? Thank you very much.

You can use [ParaView trace](https://forgeanalytics.io/blog/creating-a-python-trace-in-paraview/) to learn which code needs to happen on the server side. Then it is a matter for your to design your server and your client accordingly.
