#OPENSCAD REVIEW CODE#
And since sharing models is just sending a URL with the code for the model embedded, it’s very easy to share. CascadeStudio has the same immediacy as OpenSCAD but a cleaner language.
I’ve written a lot of Python code, but SolidPython feels like a layer of indirection around OpenSCAD that doesn’t bring me a lot of extra value, and doesn’t have the immediacy of an integrated interface, so even though it’s a language I know well I haven’t been motivated to use it so far. It supports fillets and chamfers! I know I said this before, but this is one of the things that I really wish OpenSCAD had.Īs far as I can tell, it doesn’t have a way to assign colors to elements, nor a way to get the value provided by the special characters in OpenSCAD for debugging models.This isn’t storing it on the server the server is just a static page. Every time you render, entire editing buffer is represented in the URL, so you can just share the URL with someone else and they can drop it in their browser and see what you were working on.
I had mixed luck with the direct manipulation so far.
#OPENSCAD REVIEW FULL#
Instead of F5/F6/F7, F5 is a full render and then you can export the rendered object. There’s no need to re-render slowly to export to STL. At least some operations seem faster than OpenSCAD, and I didn’t see any of the Z-fighting issues that plague fast rendering in OpenSCAD.JavaScript isn’t my favorite language, but a lot more people know it than know OpenSCAD, and the modern dialect mostly isn’t terrible. It’s not an ideosyncratic language like OpenSCAD. The language syntax is just JavaScript, and the examples are written in modern javascript.I don’t see much in the way of documentation, just a few examples. It’s been barely more than 2 months since its first commit, but I wouldn’t have expected that from playing with it so far.
I just played with it today, and overall I liked it. Hack-a-Day mentioned CascadeStudio a few days ago, but it really didn’t go into much detail.
