It's a 2D and +3D geometric modelling tool that supports full colour, animation and 3D +printing. + +Features: +* Curv is a simple, powerful, dynamically typed, pure functional programming + language. +* Curv is easy to use for beginners. It has a standard library of predefined + geometric shapes, plus operators for transforming and combining shapes. These + can be plugged together like Lego to make 2D and 3D models. +* Coloured shapes are represented using Function Representation (F-Rep). They + can be infinitely detailed, infinitely large, and any shape or colour pattern + that can be described using mathematics can be represented exactly. +* Curv exposes the full power of F-Rep programming to experts. The standard + geometry library is written entirely in Curv. Many of the demos seen on + shadertoy.com can be reproduced in Curv, using shorter, simpler programs. + Experts can package techniques used on shadertoy as high level operations for + use by beginners. +* Curv can export meshes to STL, OBJ and X3D files for 3D printing. The X3D + format supports full colour 3D printing (on Shapeways.com, at least). These + meshes are defect free: watertight, manifold, with no self intersections, + degenerate triangles, or flipped triangles. + +WWW: https://github.com/curv3d/curv/ |
