## What it is
A command-line tool that converts 3D model assets from Autodesk's FBX format to glTF 2.0, including binary .glb output and Draco compression. Precompiled binaries are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

## Use cases
- convert fbx models to gltf
- batch convert 3d assets to glb for web delivery
- compress gltf models with draco
- prepare 3d models for facebook 3d posts
- pipeline conversion of fbx to gltf 2.0
- export fbx animations to gltf

## When to choose
- you need automated or scriptable FBX-to-glTF conversion
- you want binary .glb output with Draco compression
- you need cross-platform prebuilt binaries for an asset pipeline

## When to avoid
- you need conversion from formats other than FBX
- you require a GUI-based conversion workflow
- you need glTF 1.0 output

## Facets
