Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. Rendering engineers are rare to find, so this can be a starting point. For example: On GLES3+ we can use UBOs to optimize shader parameters. Shader abstraction. On GLES2, regular uniforms are used.
