The fastest way to render a model is not to render it at all. This approach enables our games to efficiently eliminate unseen static objects during rendering, reducing the rendering load and enhancing game performance. Too many Draw Calls can cause the CPU to assemble a large number of rendering instructions.

A shader is a script where you write code that determines how the colors will be rendered based on various scenarios like lighting and material configuration. Now, shaders are a topic on its own, and we’ll cover them in-depth in a separate post. Unity already has default shaders that are available with any project we create.
