  • They mention openscad in the book:

    We loved it too and created many “thingies” with it. However, as experienced software engineers, we also had a few points of critique. While OpenSCAD is easy to learn and has a syntax reminiscent of C, we felt the language could be improved in several ways:

    • more specialization for creating graphics,
    • better support for modular programming,
    • strict typing and unit handling,
    • a syntax closer to Rust than to C,
    • a solid library system,
    • plugin support for other programming languages,
    • and a more powerful visualization concept.
