OpenSCAD on Lisp?

OpenSCAD on Lisp?

[Jacob Hrbek]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 493 bytes --]

I got a 3D printer and i want to use OpenSCAD to program the objects for
interpretation for fabrication, but the OpenSCAD (https://openscad.org)
uses C-style syntax which is for this kind of development really
annoying to use -> Is there any lisp (preferably scheme) that integrates
with the backend for me to use lisp for the designs?

Or really anything relevant is appreciated if it gets me closer to this
kind of development is appreciated and i am willing to write code.

Congrats on getting a 3D printer!

I haven't used it other than playing around, but libfive
<https://libfive.com/> has a Scheme API.

Best,

Figured out libfive that is written in guile and perfect for this

libfive is great.  I only ever used it to quickly iterate over different
workbench designs for wood working.  Not exactly the best tool for that,
but it sure was fun.
