A SCAD file is a modern format used for storing 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) data and is the native file format for the OpenSCAD application. The SCAD file format stores the CAD data in the form of scripts, allowing users to modify the properties of objects quite easily by modifying the various scripted parameters.

The script contained within a SCAD file enables the creation of basic shapes such as cubes, cylinders, spheres, and other more complex shapes by using special commands to merge shapes. As this is a scripted format and is designed to be manually edited, a SCAD file stores this script in human-readable plain text format.

Support for SCAD files is largely limited to the OpenSCAD software, though there are other CAD applications that support the format. Our own SCAD converter tools can convert SCAD files to other 3D model formats, such as STL.

GLB files are the binary equivalent of the GLTF 3D file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group. GLB files are designed to be an open and expandable 3D format that can store 3D graphics and their assets, such as textures, animations, and more.

The content of a GLB file is binary and enables highly efficient storage and transmission of 3D data. This efficiency of size, along with its ability to store all the associated assets in the same file, has made GLB files one of the preferred formats for use within 3D web content and other applications.

Due to their open format, GLB files are widely supported by 3D editing software. The format has gained traction amongst videogame developers and other 3D artists as a primary means of exchanging 3D data between different applications.
