Write JavaScript

Think I'll stick to openscad

This looks amazing. I hope someone makes it able to export gcode.

Wouldn't an STL file be sufficient?

That's a separate kind of tool.

With so many new repo because of ai, ignoring their quality, i haven't seen much update on cad/cam field

https://zoo.dev/ is one of the newer ones

and there's https://microcad.xyz/

Yeah, I meant that, sorry.

That was my first reaction until I noticed its object-orientated.

Then I baulked at having to rawdog node and npm on my machine.

no thank you.

You guys feel free to keep being JS-phobic but please don't describe setting up an ECMAScript runtime environment scarily complicated. It's apt install node npm notably on Ubuntu/Debian. That's it.

Besides, there are Bun and Deno now which are evidently faster runtime than Node.

If you have a problem with the language itself, please criticise at it, not something made from it. In fact, being a programmatic schematic file, a script rather than a compiled language makes more sense because a script evolves faster in development while sacrificing performance. Performance isn't top priority.

And you said it's object-oriented? Which part of this piece of code in their tutorial looks OO to you?

circle(50, "xy")               // circle on the XY plane
rect(100, 60, "front")         // rectangle on the front plane
line([0, 0], [100, 50], "xz")  // line on the XZ plane
slot(80, 20, "xy")             // slot on the XY plane
arc(50, 0, 90, "front")       // arc on the front plane

You're arguing the wrong points. You didn't really read what I said.

I don't care about Javascript. I don't want my computer catching dependency hell or cryptominer herpes.

I don't want that shit rawdogging my system, go package it up into something sensible. I don't want its entrails all over my system and I don't want it breaking something elses dependencies.

Thanks for sharing with us. I personally don't like subscription svc which needs internet connection,but at least they open source some part of whole app and offer free tier. Some bro/sis are gonna like it. Microcad looks like heading to programmatic approach like openscad. Anyway, begger cannot be chooser, I simply appreciate everyone's hardwork and hope the best of all open source projects
