3D software commonly allows you to set properties on your object vertices, like coloring and texturing. This information goes into the glTF *.gltf* or Collada *.dae* file that you export from your 3D software. Depending on the requirements of your game you will have to select and/or create appropriate and _performant_ materials for your objects. A material combines _shader programs_ with a set of parameters for rendering of the object.
