Does the GLB file preserve skeletal character animations from FBX?

Web3D & Lightweight VisualizationDifficulty: Medium (Skeletal Animation & PBR Shader Conversion)

Autodesk FBX to Web3D (.glb) Real-Time Asset Converter

Game engines and digital content tools (Maya, 3ds Max) export complex scenes in FBX format. However, web browsers cannot natively render FBX files. Converting FBX to GLB enables seamless real-time viewing in web applications with full animation and material fidelity.
