# mach/model3d - compact, featureful model format & alternative to glTF
|
|
|
|
[Model3D](https://gitlab.com/bztsrc/model3d/) is an up-and-coming compact, featureful, universal model format that tries to address the shortcomings of existing formats (yes, including glTF - see [their rationale](https://gitlab.com/bztsrc/model3d/#rationale).)
|
|
|
|
This repository provides Zig bindings, with the aim of a pure-Zig implementation eventually.
|
|
|
|
This repository is a separate copy of the same library in the [main Mach repository](https://github.com/hexops/mach), and is automatically kept in sync, so that anyone can use this library in their own project if they like!
|
|
|
|
## Experimental
|
|
|
|
This is an _experimental_ Mach library, according to our [stability guarantees](https://machengine.org/next/docs/libs/):
|
|
|
|
> Experimental libraries may have their APIs change without much notice, and you may have to look at recent changes in order to update your code.

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
Contributions are very welcome. Pull requests must be sent to [the main repository](https://github.com/hexops/mach/tree/main/libs/model3d) to avoid some complex merge conflicts we'd get by accepting contributions in both repositories. Once the changes are merged there, they'll get sync'd to this repository automatically.
