Description
ShapeScript is a 3D modeling program for people who don’t like 3D modeling programs.
Instead of dragging polygons and vertices around in a GUI, ShapeScript lets you define your models precisely using code. No artistic skills are required - ShapeScript does all the drawing for you.
The ShapeScript app includes a parser for a simple language (also called “ShapeScript”). ShapeScript (the language) is a cross between a markup language and a programming language.
You don’t need to be a programmer to use ShapeScript. If you have ever worked with any kind of structured text like JSON or HTML then it should come naturally. But if you do have experience with programming, then you can apply those skills to create even more complex models by using loops, functions and variables to procedurally generate geometry.
What’s New
Version 1.11.4
• Export — Added SVG export.
• Syntax — Added "in" operator for testing if a value lies within a tuple or range.
• Syntax — Negative subscript indices can now be used to access elements at the end of a list.
Ratings and Reviews
3D printing perfection
If you're a programmer or raw HTML editor type person just starting out in 3D printing then this is the app for you. This is not a WYSIWYG editor, which is a very good thing in my experience, it's far more like a Markdown renderer/viewer.
This app, combined with a text editor, and slicer will allow you to create and adjust your own prints very quickly.
Worth every penny.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the great review! I'm happy you're enjoying ShapeScript. Markdown for 3D is exactly what I was going for. If you think of any features or improvements let me know at support@charcoaldesign.co.uk
