APIs are provided for C and C++. There are various bindings to other languages (C#, Java, Python, Delphi, D). Assimp also runs on Android and iOS.
Additionally, assimp features various __mesh post processing tools__: normals and tangent space generation, triangulation, vertex cache locality optimization, removal of degenerate primitives and duplicate vertices, sorting by primitive type, merging of redundant materials and many more.
-This is the development trunk containing the latest features and bugfixes. For productive use though, we recommend one of the stable releases available from [assimp.sf.net](http://assimp.sf.net) or from *nix package repositories.
