Capabilities

Real-time Rendering

Every code change updates the 3D view instantly. No compile step, no F5 required. Just type and watch your model evolve.

Click-to-Select

Click any shape in the viewport to select it. The corresponding code highlights automatically, making it easy to understand complex models.

Multi-File Projects

Organize your code across multiple files. Use include() and use() just like standard OpenSCAD. Keep modules clean and reusable.

Color Support

Full color() support with named colors and RGB values. Preview your painted models before exporting—great for multi-material prints.

STL Export

Export your model as STL with one click. Ready for slicing in your favorite slicer. Supports both ASCII and binary formats.

Axis Helper

Always know your orientation. The axis helper shows X (red), Y (green), and Z (blue) to keep you grounded in 3D space.

Write it, see it

The 3D view updates in real-time as you type. This parametric phone stand code would render instantly, showing you exactly how changing base_width or angle affects the final model.
