Blockscad
BlocksCAD is a cloud-based, block-based 3D modeling software that is built on OpenSCAD. Users not only learn programming skills but learn about the underlying geometry of the 3D space, and about basic CAD fundamentals without having to create work arounds. The software is easy enough to be used by third graders, but powerful enough to be used productively by adults. while providing rich learning outcomes by developing strong math and computer programming skills. With a simple block-based programming interface, students will write programs to design their models.
