I'm using glm library. Transform class stores single glm::mat4

Fuction glm::decompose can give me all information I need, but... Why I need to extract everything if I need, for example, only position?

Don't sure about interface of Transform tho

Because it's a generic toolkit.

If you only need the position, apply the transformation to the origin.
