Interesting. I just tried your example and it worked on my end.

Have you tried rendering any of the examples in the repo? I know its not ideal but just to see what is going on. Please add an issue on the repo so I can try to fix the issue you are experiencing.

I just tried a few, but no difference. One problem is that I can't see how far I'm zoomed in or out, and opening another file doesn't seem to reset the camera. So maybe there is something outside of the view that I can't seem, although zooming in and out doesn't seem to help.

I can open an issue but there isn't anything more than 'doesn't work' I can add. If you can describe some way for me to get information that's useful to debug, I can write that up.

Having renders "auto focus" has been on my mind. Probably will be coming soon. I was focused on getting the language and runtime in better shape first.
3D software commonly calls this "zoom extents" to automatically pan/zoom so that the model fills a useful portion of the screen.

In AutoCAD and Fusion 360 it's bound to double-click middle mouse because of how often it's used, though between users of 10 different 3D software packages you'll find 10 different but strongly held opinions on how the viewport navigation should work.
