Our budget couldn't afford Epic Games style nanite, but there are three js implementions.. so it's not impossible to recreate.

three-nanite is based on https://github.com/zeux/meshoptimizer cutting each mesh into maybe 124 triangles per chunk.

That's a cool demo (even if it doesn't work on my phone, I get it from the video), but it's a long, long way from a nanite implementation. At best I'd call it dynamic LODs or something.
Jason Booth (the author) also has a YouTube channel talking about similar topics.
I really liked his 'Practical Optimizations' video: https://youtu.be/NAVbI1HIzCE
Thanks for the cool video link!
LOD = level of detail
The 12 ish lods are automatically generated by https://github.com/zeux/meshoptimizer.

We allow a hierarchical level of detail if people want to set it up.
