As I understand it, BabylonJS is interpreted and the entire app is sent to the client as plain text. Am I wrong? Is there a way to only send binaries so that the game can’t simply be copied, modified, and pasted onto another site?
I’d like to make a game that sells products and I don’t want players just going to some pirate site to have everything unlocked for free.
hey
you can not close the JavaScript 100% in browser
it is not depend for BABYLON js but you can make encryption and hide your key
that can make hard for copy and use it
for myself i make key from domain name and encrypt my js files so that just work on the main domain but it not mean i close it completely
Basically, no. Anything you send to the client they can modify (even compiled code, with a little bit more difficulty).

Is your game single player? If so, then there’s not much you can do to stop piracy or “hacking”, you can only make it less easy. I just minify & uglify JS to make it less easy, but anyone with programming experience will easily get past it.
If it’s multiplayer you could handle interactions authoritatively, which can fix a lot of those issues.
