What is the purpose of .godot folder?

General

Hi
I was trying to sync a project but in the patch I noticed that there is .godot folder at root of the project.

It has around 200 files and 50 folders. Size is around 20 MB.

After exploring, it looks like it has information about config, imported assets and cache.

What I’ll lose if I delete it?

Thanks

You lose (not loose) nothing. Godot will regenerate it next time you start the editor. The folder contains imported resources and other things that will be used when you export your game.

Thanks @FencerDevLog
I’ll put it in .gitignore

Thanks for pointing out spelling error as well. I have made that silly mistake in the past as well.
