Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Better OpenSCAD?
https://github.com/SolidCode/SolidPython --- apparently there's a fork as a v2 which is to be preferred
- Is there a way to assign properties to solid objects?
-
Created a makefile build system using python for easier generation of multiple scad objects
Then use SolidPython to generate the scad files. ;)

GhostSCAD: Marrying OpenSCAD and Golang
I wonder how many OpenSCAD wrappers now exist? I know of scad-clj [0], openpyscad [1], and solidpython [2].
I particularly like scad-clj, because of `lein auto generate`. It watches source files, and regenerates the OpenSCAD files automatically, which OpenSCAD then also picks up. Although I'm not well versed in Clojure, and find debugging Clojure tricky, the workflow is just so good.

I wrote a quick tutorial on how to use OpenSCAD to model containers for board game tokens. Link to the tutorial is in the comments.
Check out SolidPython, a front-end to OpenSCAD in Python that generates OpenSCAD code. It's actively developed (latest commit was 16 days ago) and has some excellent features, including first-class negative spaces - once you declare something to be a hole, the library makes sure that, no matter what, you will get a hole in the final model.

Writing a computer program from scratch that parametrically generates an entire jet engine assembly
The mesh is already generated. I'm using a library (https://github.com/SolidCode/SolidPython) that generates OpenSCAD code which can be exported to pretty much any 3D format you want.
-
Cylinder on coordinates from a txt or excel file
If you share an Excel (or, better yet, CSV) file, I can put up some Python code that outputs the OpenSCAD you want. I wrote SolidPython for exactly situations like this-- when you want to interface with other kinds of programs than just modeling.

OpenSCAD - There should be a "negative" switch
In addition to first-class negative space (a hole like OP asked for), the SolidPython OpenSCAD binding also includes +, -, and * operators for union, difference, and intersection. (Disclosure; I’m the author)

OpenScad is great, but slow to render.
Also, if it’s screw threads you’re after, there may just be some faster (== non-minkowski) ways to do that. OpenSCAD calculates polyhedrons much faster than big unions of parts. Buut, OpenSCAD also kinda sucks for doing vector math. I wrote SolidPython to get around some of the constrictions of OpenSCAD, and the screw_thread utility method should render decently detailed threads (120 segments per revolution, say) in a few seconds.

A blocky based CAD program
its uses https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org library to create the 3d model
- Is there some way to implement a web-based customizer?
-
Procedural CAD Modelling tools for WebGL
then there are 2 others, sop/CSGboolean and sop/CADboolean. CSGBoolean is indeed based on CSG, and uses jscad. And the CAD one (which I show in the video in this post) is based on opencascade, which is the most powerful/stable. Then the output of both of those nodes is converted to threejs in order to be displayed in webgl.

Is there a way to share a network drive or a folder over the internet?
That being said, https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org sounds like a winner for your requirement of NOT having to download a file across the internet.

Show HN: Replicad, the Library for CAD in the Browser
this looks very nice. i think i like the ergonomics of your library... the "sketch on a plane then extrude" workflow feels nice and familiar.
could you compare and contrast replicad to JSCAD (https://openjscad.xyz)?
the examples in your docs are quite sluggish to load in Safari, but the workbench is very snappy!

10 ways to get the best out of OpenSCAD
No one has mentioned OpenJSCAD, which is the same idea in Javascript: http://openjscad.azurewebsites.net/
https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org/tree/V2
A fairly substantial rewrite is underway, the V2 branch linked above.
-
Code CAD – Use code to create CAD models
- Browserify to bundle the design into a website. Directly from the source CAD files, without rendering to a huge mesh file format.
It's cool because you get access to the whole javascript ecosystem, and it's native to the browser.
