## What it is
A Blender add-on that exports Blender scenes directly to Godot Engine's native scene format (.escn). It is experimental and the README recommends glTF 2.0 for full-featured pipelines.

## Use cases
- export blender scenes to godot
- convert blend files to godot scenes
- godot game asset pipeline from blender
- export 3d models with scene structure to godot
- avoid gltf intermediate step when using godot

## When to choose
- you want direct Blender-to-Godot scene export preserving Godot-specific nodes
- you prefer the native .escn format over glTF for simple scenes

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured, mature export pipeline (use glTF 2.0 instead)
- you use Godot 4 or newer Blender versions where glTF is the recommended workflow

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: experimental
- function: file-system, graphics, plugin-system
- domain: graphics, cross-platform
- platform: cross-platform, python
- tags: blender-addon, godot-engine, scene-export, escn, 3d-pipeline, game-development
