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.

I run everything I can out of containers. It makes remembering all the changes I made easy, and reverting them even easier. My hardware is a generic PC in my closet.

I'm running:

• Jelly Fin
• Transmission Torrent
• Next Cloud (I have mounted Jellyfin and Torrent's volumes within the Next Cloud instance so I can access them from there, very convenient)
• Home Assistant
• Wire Guard
• A printer daemon so my old printer from 2008 can do wifi printing (I refuse to upgrade)
• A scanner daemon so I can wifi scan too (scanservjs)
• A tool to expose my UPS as a battery Home Assistant can monitor
• Traefik (big pain but great payoff)
• Watch Tower to keep the public facing stuff automatically updated
• Automatic Ripping Machine which... is almost good but I'm generally disappointed with. It's still worth using though.
• ESPHome which lets me make my own smart home devices with ESP family microcontrollers. I've made my own smart window blinds and smartified an air conditioner.
• Minecraft/Factorio depending on the mood of my friends and I.

But that's not all, I also installed OpenWRT on my router, more out of necessity because it didn't have features my ISP required. That's running:

• ... actually everything else about it is pretty standard.

I have a Raspberry Pi running OctoPrint for a 3D printer in the corner. I would have preferred to have ran that on my server to save on power and save a Raspberry Pi but I don't have a long enough USB cable.
