Feature Requests
1

Describe your feature request
I would like to add support for OpenScad, see https://openscad.org/

What problem(s) would this feature solve?
This feature would allow me to work on my 3D modeling in my web browser using OpenScad making them easier to work on from many machines and easier to share code for these models.

Explain what you were trying to do when you came across the problem leading to this feature request
I usually work on 3d modeling on a specific laptop, but today I was using a different laptop and wanted to quickly pick up where I left off

I mean, replit runs on Linux, can’t you just install it?

The goal of this feature request is about adding support for a new language/template? support for OpenScad.

If it is possible to build my own template using Linux and setting it up to have OpenScad installed, I would appreciate responses that send me in the right direction. If I have time, I can explore this path too, but would prefer default support so I can skip straight to using this awesome platform for 3d modeling and not figuring out Repl.it specifics. If it’s a small amount of work, Ill try to create the template myself, appreciate any guidance here.

Well, you could import the Github repo to Replit and work from there. Only real thing I can help you with besides that is renaming this topic for you.

You can publish templates, and replit uses a tool called nix for easy additions of new languages.

I doubt this makes much sense as it needs graphics rendering, but hey could be cool (even if I have sold all my printers)
