I have been using their API/MCP tooling. If I remember correctly its still experimental but it does work. I have it hooked up to my OpenWebUI instance. https://github.com/kagisearc…

I have been interested in CAD and heard a lot of talk about BREP vs T-Splines. Especially after the patent expired in 2024. However I could not find good libraries or resources on …

I have been doing work in the 3D cad space. Primarily using existing kernels but now that the patent for T-Splines is expired I figured I would give it a go to implement. There is …

I did. It's behind me now and more importantly I'm fully recovered mentally and physically. I don't live in the states so it's not as dramatic legally as you may imagine.

You still need to be careful. I'm an avid climber. Most autobelay accidents happen because people don't clip in properly. However for me the auto belay cable broke after catching m…

TBH I am not sure but I suspect the answer is yes. I use OpenCascade as the base CAD kernel and it handles things like Z-fighting a lot better. I built DSLCAD after completing port…

For those who are interested. I have been working on a similar CAD Modeler. I think of it as a spiritual successor to OpenSCAD. It has support for bidirectional modeling (ex: get t…

My partner is a medical doctor. She can't navigate around. I don't think there is any link. Navigation was something that I was taught early and is a skill like anything else.

There is something nice and pure about this site. It is probably just coincidence and random that the number 37 is seen around. Likely something along the lines of the Baader-Meinh…

Good write-up. What was understated but I appreciate was that this optimization was done late and after being picked up via profiling. For devs there is sometimes a drive to do thi…

You have a super interesting use case. Can you reach out on the github issues so that we can track it? From what I can tell you are trying to generate GCode directly from the softw…

The goal of pipe is to allow the code to read top to bottom. I always found it hard to explain the way an OpenSCAD program reads upwards when nesting operations. As for the syntax …

For sure I would accept a PR! One of the goals I have here is to try and make it approachable to expand for others. If you have an idea on how to make this work please feel free to…

You are probably right. The Linux hacker in me still kind of prefers having a bit of style to names. Maybe over time this will change.

Thanks for checking it out. I am glad you like it. 1. Now that you have asked for it, I certainly plan on adding `loft`. Thank you for the suggestion. Looking quickly it looks quit…

Hey. I'm glad that this is what you are looking for. At the moment there isn't constraint based modeling. However given that you have a programming language at your disposal you ca…

I am not very familiar with the homebrew packaging process. I would be happy if someone wants to help set that up. Ill take a look into KittyCAD. Seems like a cool idea and is wort…

From my understanding JSCAD is aiming to be 1:1 compatible with OpenSCAD. So both strengths and limitations will come with that. DSLCAD is a new take on the idea. Right now it does…

Having renders "auto focus" has been on my mind. Probably will be coming soon. I was focused on getting the language and runtime in better shape first.

Fixed. Thank you :)

Its using open cascade. I am not a mechanical engineer. I am a software developer however I have worked closely with engineers and have some experience with CAD applications. Reall…

Interesting. I just tried your example and it worked on my end. Have you tried rendering any of the examples in the repo? I know its not ideal but just to see what is going on. Ple…

Not yet. Its certainly something that I want to support. I want to avoid supporting all the formats so settling on a few clear options in the space is the goal. Right now its only …

Should be fixed now. CI issue

It is designed for use with an external editor. It watches the files and hot reloads when you save changes. I didn't want to do a sub par job building my own text editor. I cant wa…
