GL Transmission Format

glTF ("the JPEG of 3D") is the runtime asset format for 3D scenes, designed by Khronos for fast loading in web/AR/VR applications. Two flavors: .gltf (JSON + external textures) and .glb (binary, single-file, what we produce here). Native viewer support in macOS/iOS Quick Look, Windows 3D Viewer, every modern browser via three.js or babylon.js.
