The left-handed coordinate system, with the Y axis pointing up, showing positive rotations about the X, Y, and Z axes.

Resonite uses a left-handed coordinate system. Rotation about any axis is, therefore, positive in the clockwise direction, and negative in the counterclockwise direction.

Rotations are natively represented as quaternions. These are difficult to intuit, so other representations can be used in ProtoFlux: Axis-Angle and Euler. Conversions to and from these representations are available as ProtoFlux nodes.
