gamma VS curv

I was looking for a suitable example for a tutorial for my programmatic solid modeling CAD Gamma and a clamp seemed suitable. Well, I haven't started work on the tutorial yet, but here's a clamp-mount assembly for my Lagrange keyboard.

It's currently quite stable and can be used productively if you can manage to build it. It should support many platforms, but currently is developed solely on Linux. An example of what it can do, can be seen in the Orb trackball. See the project page for more details.

This might interest the mechanically (or geometrically) inclined here: I've just released Gamma, which, for want of better terms, I'll describe as a geometry compiler. It works like most compilers, only the output is geometry, not executables. It also supports multiple language frontends, one of which is Scheme (via Chibi-Scheme, the other currently being Lua).

The Orb was designed as a relatively complex application that could drive the development of Gamma, which, for lack of better terms, I will describe as a multi-language compiler collection for computational geometry. You write programs in one of the support languages (currently Scheme and Lua) and it produces geometry. If you're into designing stuff and have some programming skills, have a look at the project page for more details.

curv seems to have cad/slicer integration in mind as a long term goal, using f-rep to generate infill as well as the shape itself.

Curv is another cool GPU SDF renderer that you may find interesting!

The author outlines several OpenSCAD features that they want to implement here.

I've also written up a 2D study of Marching Cubes (Squares) vs Dual Contouring:
