## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 10/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)

## What it is
A collection of sample glTF 1.0 and 2.0 3D models maintained by Khronos Group for testing and demonstrating the glTF format, including PBR materials, animations, and skins in .gltf, .glb, and embedded forms. The repository has been archived and superseded by the glTF-Sample-Assets repo.

## Use cases
- download sample gltf models for testing a 3d viewer
- find pbr test assets for a game engine
- validate my gltf parser against known-good models
- get example 3d assets for a webgl demo
- test gltf animation and skinning support
- find cc0 3d models for prototyping

## When to choose
- you need reference glTF assets to test a renderer, loader, or converter
- you want sample models covering glTF 2.0 features like PBR, skins, and animations
- you need example files in .gltf, .glb, and embedded formats

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained or newly contributed models - use the glTF-Sample-Assets repo instead
- you need production-ready game assets rather than test/sample models
- you need formats other than glTF

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: graphics, game-engine, data-generation
- domain: graphics, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: gltf, 3d-models, sample-assets, pbr, test-assets, archived, game-development
