class SpotLight extends PointLight :id=SpotLight

Element: <lume-spot-light>

This emits light from a single point in one direction along a cone shape that increases in size the further the light goes.

This creates light that frays outward as it travels in a particular direction, just like a real-life spot light, unlike a point light that emits light in all directions.
