/** <p>
 * A Mesh holds vertices composed of attributes specified by a {@link VertexAttributes} instance. The vertices are held either in
 * VRAM in form of vertex buffer objects or in RAM in form of vertex arrays. The former variant is more performant and is
 * preferred over vertex arrays if hardware supports it.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Meshes are automatically managed. If the OpenGL context is lost all vertex buffer objects get invalidated and must be reloaded
 * when the context is recreated. This only happens on Android when a user switches to another application or receives an incoming
 * call. A managed Mesh will be reloaded automagically so you don't have to do this manually.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * A Mesh consists of vertices and optionally indices which specify which vertices define a triangle. Each vertex is composed of
 * attributes such as position, normal, color or texture coordinate. Note that not all of this attributes must be given, except
 * for position which is non-optional. Each attribute has an alias which is used when rendering a Mesh in OpenGL ES 2.0. The alias
 * is used to bind a specific vertex attribute to a shader attribute. The shader source and the alias of the attribute must match
 * exactly for this to work.
 * </p>
