OpenSCAD is great, but with Python experience I'd recommend taking a look at CadQuery.
Managed to get it working and while performance is much better, syntax is downright disgusting. I know it's Python, but looking at any code written for CQ would give Guido a nightmare. Am not sure looking up to jQuery was a good idea to begin with. I'll try and give it a shot few more times, but boy does code written in this syntax look ugly and cryptic. Thanks for the recommendation though.
Maybe am missing something important here with chaining of commands?
It's not ideal, no, but I find it better than OpenSCAD for the simple reason that it's inside of a complete programming language. But that's rarely needed so, eh?
I don't know what my ideal code-first solution would look like, but at least there's multiple options!
It's great that it's inside of Python as a language but at the same time sad that they didn't take advantage of readability of the language. Syntax is very convoluted. But I'll give it a shot some more times, perhaps there's some obvious logic am missing.
