It’s a script driven CAD program, inspired by OpenSCAD and CAD Query. It’s most noteworthy features are dimensional type safety and automatic unit conversion.

You can see some samples in the readme: https://github.com/IamTheCarl/CommandCAD

Currently you can make STL files to feed your slicer (and two other formats)

My more near term goals are to export svgs of sketches and produce gcode suitable for laser cutters. My more long term goals are to produce gcode for a variety of machines, add a package manager (for importing libraries and other models), and an interactive editor.

I got so fed up with the free CAD tools that I started making my own. I’m a few months in and while it’s still extremely experimental, It’s almost useful.

Would it be cool if I posted about it there from time to time to try and get opinions on its interface and workflow? I’m of the opinion that it’s still too young to advertise as a usable tool.

If they want to gate-keep themselves then fine by me.

I legit joined this instance yesterday because I’m not going to trust the claims of randos (who are now very easy to see as frauds) and although I agree that Lemmy needs some work, it’s responsive and reasonably usable. I’m impressed at how well it’s handling the massive Reddit migration.
