What is the .gltf format used for?

glTF is a Khronos standard for efficient transmission and loading of 3D scenes and models.

Can .gltf files reference external resources?

Yes. .gltf often references external buffers or textures. For reliable loading, keep all referenced assets reachable with CORS enabled.

No. Local drag-drop and Browse loads are processed in your browser. URL loads fetch directly from the source host and require CORS.

Offen und view glTF 3D models online. Drag-drop, Browse, URL load, and parser fallback are supported client-side.
