Can we create Normals or any other attribute using vex and why does the shading of my sphere changes just by adding normals? What if i want to add normals without affecting shading quality of my sphere?

[@AriseWorks]

Yes you can use vex to create attributes.
If your sphere did not have N attribute before, then whatever you've seen previously was controlled by Display options (press D in the viewport) > Geometry > Normals > Cusp Angle (60 by default). Those are not real normals, those are just for viewport shading whenever you don't have N attribute.
If you did have normals previously (imported geometry, or created some with normals), you don't need to write new normals if you are happy with what you see.

[@cinemareelsX60]

@@AriseWorks So basically it means having normals or not doesn't affect my render quality, its just a viewport thing?

[@AriseWorks]

Mantra usually presumes that no normals means 60 degree cusp angle, but it's not safe to not have normals for various reasons - normal maps and displacement to name a couple.
Other render engines will just render messed up results, since they don't have those cusp angle assumptions.
Always do have normals.

@@AriseWorks ok thanks i get it normals are for smoothing edge shading .
