- Description
- XGL 3D CAD Models are computer-aided design (CAD) files used for creating 3D models for engineering, design, and manufacturing purposes. These files contain 3D geometry, views, and other information used to help design and create 3D models. They are used in CAD-based applications such as Autodesk Inventor and Solidworks.
- A JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) file is a lightweight, text-based, human-readable format used for data interchange. It is designed to store and transport data. JSON files use the .json file extension and are structured as a collection of name/value pairs, where the names are strings, and the values can be strings, numbers, arrays, or even other JSON objects. This format is widely used in web applications for exchanging data between a client and a server, as well as in configuration files.
