How to create awesome Facebook 3D posts
VECTARY is the online and free glTF native app to enable people to create 3D models for Facebook 3D posts.

With Facebook recently announcing rolling out support for 3D content, you’re about to see more and more 3D posts popping up in your News Feed. You can now drag and drop 3D objects into a new post, or take 3D posts and bring them into Facebook Spaces, the social VR hangout rooms.
How to create a Facebook 3D post
To create a 3D post, you need a .glb file because this is the supported file format by Facebook. Every model you create in VECTARY can be exported as a .glb file.
VECTARY has a .glb file exporter so you can also upload your .obj or .stl files and convert them to .glb format.
