Documents publishing PlayCanvas games to Snapchat as Web Lenses, and updates the create-playcanvas guide for the web-lens starter and create-playcanvas 0.11.1. The Snapchat launch blog post links readers to the create-playcanvas page, which still said there were 12 starters and didn't mention the new one.

Snap's own Web Lens docs already cover the platform rules, the Web Lens API and the publishing process, using PlayCanvas throughout, and those rules are still changing in beta. So these pages cover only what's specific to PlayCanvas, for each product, and link to Snap's docs for the rest.

• Code projects (Engine, React, Web Components): Start with create-playcanvas gets a Snapchat Web Lens Starter section. It covers what the starter handles, how to make it your own, packaging with npm run package, and where to upload.
• Editor projects: a new Editor > Publishing > Snapchat Web Lenses page, next to Playable Ads, covers adding snap-api.js with Loading Type set to Before Engine, downloading and zipping the build, and uploading it. The Editor's Where can I publish PlayCanvas games? list links to it, and the two pages link to each other.
• Start with create-playcanvas:
  • adds the Snapchat Web Lens starter to the Games row
  • documents two 0.11.1 changes: production builds use relative URLs, and runs without a terminal take the defaults
  • drops the hard-coded starter count, here and in Getting Started, since it goes stale whenever a starter is added
• LLM indexes: the Engine index links to the starter section and the Editor index links to the Editor page. The entries point to the pages rather than restating them, and the root index is unchanged.
• Japanese: both locales are updated, with heading IDs that match the English anchors.

npm run lint, npm test and npm run build pass, and the build has no warnings. It generates both locales of the new page and its Markdown version, and the #snapchat-web-lens-starter anchor that the Editor page links to exists in both locales.

Manual smoke test:

1. Open Getting Started > Start with create-playcanvas. The Games row lists Snapchat Web Lens, and the Snapchat Web Lens Starter section shows the scaffold and npm run package commands and links to the Editor page.
2. Open PlayCanvas Editor > Publishing. The list includes Snapchat Web Lenses, and the sidebar lists it after Playable Ads.
3. Open Snapchat Web Lenses. It covers adding the Web Lens API, zipping the build and uploading it, and links back to the starter section.
4. Switch the site to Japanese and repeat steps 1-3. The same information appears in Japanese.
