## What it is
A command-line tool that converts GLTF/GLB 3D model assets into declarative, reusable React Three Fiber JSX components. It builds a pruned virtual graph of objects and materials and can optionally compress models with draco, texture resizing, and mesh simplification.

## Use cases
- convert gltf model to react three fiber component
- turn glb file into jsx code
- optimize 3d model for web with draco compression
- make 3d assets reusable in react
- generate typescript types for a 3d model
- reduce gltf file size for web
- prune unnecessary nodes from a 3d scene graph

## When to choose
- you use react-three-fiber and want declarative, editable 3D scenes instead of loading GLTF files whole
- you need to re-use, conditionally render, or restructure nodes from a 3D model
- you want to compress and optimize GLTF assets (draco, webp textures, mesh simplification) for the web

## When to avoid
- you don't use React or react-three-fiber
- you need a runtime GLTF loader rather than a build-time code generator
- you work with non-GLTF 3D formats like FBX or OBJ
