v4 Roadmap

Roadmap and priorities for glTF Transform v4.x releases. Thanks to project sponsors and contributors!

Maintenance (Ongoing)

• Improve /cli code health and performance: The dependency currently used for the glTF Transform CLI (Caporal.js) has limited maintenance recently. I’ve evaluated alternatives and I still prefer Caporal.js, but the cli module is currently higher cost in terms of maintenance time, and I’d like to improve that.
• Website & documentation: The website (https://gltf-transform.dev/) focuses mostly on API documentation. I’d like for the website to also provide tutorials for common use cases, and more compelling illustrations and demos of how the glTF Transform project can be used.
• Performance: Improving processing speed, particularly for large and complex scenes
