A simple CAD package written in Go (https://golang.org/)

• Objects are modelled with 2d and 3d signed distance functions (SDFs).
• Objects are defined with Go code.
• Objects are rendered to an STL/3MF file to be viewed and/or 3d printed.

1. See the examples.
2. Write some Go code to define your own object.
3. Build and run the Go code.
4. Preview the output in an 3d file viewer (e.g.http://www.meshlab.net/)
5. Print the STL/3MF file if you like it enough.

SDF Viewer Go orSDFX-UI allow faster development iterations, replacing steps 3 and 4 until the final build.

• SDFs make CSG easy.
• As a language Golang > OpenSCAD.
• SDFs can easily do filleting and chamfering (hard to do with OpenSCAD).
• SDFs are hackable to try out oddball ideas.
