FBX vs Objective-C

Developers should learn and use FBX when working in 3D graphics, game development, or animation pipelines that require cross-application compatibility, such as exporting models from Blender to Unity or Unreal Engine meets developers should learn objective-c primarily for maintaining and updating existing macos and ios applications that were built before swift became dominant, as many legacy apple projects still rely on it. Here's our take.

FBX

Nice Pick

Developers should learn and use FBX when working in 3D graphics, game development, or animation pipelines that require cross-application compatibility, such as exporting models from Blender to Unity or Unreal Engine

Pros

  • +It is essential for handling complex 3D assets with animations and rigging, as it preserves data integrity during transfers
  • +Related to: 3d-modeling, game-development

Cons

  • -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

Objective-C

Developers should learn Objective-C primarily for maintaining and updating existing macOS and iOS applications that were built before Swift became dominant, as many legacy Apple projects still rely on it

Pros

  • +It is also useful for understanding the foundations of Apple's development ecosystem, such as the Cocoa frameworks and dynamic runtime features
  • +Related to: swift, cocoa

Cons

  • -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict

These tools serve different purposes. FBX is a tool while Objective-C is a language. We picked FBX based on overall popularity, but your choice depends on what you're building.

🧊
The Bottom Line
FBX wins

Based on overall popularity. FBX is more widely used, but Objective-C excels in its own space.
