kcl-samples
KittyCAD Language (KCL) is our language for defining geometry and working with our Geometry Engine efficiently.
This repository includes a mixture of simple and complex models demonstrating the features and syntax of KCL.
The samples can be browsed in our documentation at https://zoo.dev/docs/kcl-samples.
Guidelines for adding samples
KCL samples conform to a set of style guidelines to ensure consistency and readability.
-
File Naming: Name your KCL files descriptively and concisely, using hyphens to separate words (e.g., flange.kcl, ball-bearing.kcl).
-
File Header: Include a title comment at the top of each file, followed by a brief description explaining what the model is and its typical use cases.
-
Inline Comments: Use inline comments to explain non-obvious parts of the code. Each major section should have a comment describing its purpose.
-
Constants: Define constants at the beginning of your KCL files for any values that might change or need to be reused (e.g., dimensions, angles).
Snapshot and export
When you submit a PR to add or modify KCL samples, images and STEP files will be generated and added to the repository automatically.
