Hi HN,

Wanted to share an app I'm developing and hopefully get feedback. Forewarning: it's got a fair share of bugs! Still, I think it's reached a point that it is functional and useful for certain workflows.

The goal was to create a tool for blocking out scenes on my iPad and phone. It has since grown to encompass a set of core hard surface operators patterned after Blender.

This is not a browser port of Blender's source, though it is heavily inspired by its UX; all Rust and Typescript here. It runs in any modern browser that supports WebGPU.

Please play around with it and let me know your thoughts. I would greatly appreciate it. There's a feedback system built into the app (Ctrl+Shift+F and in the main menu), or you can leave a comment here. Happy to discuss ideas as well.

I plan to introduce a "pro" version eventually, but features currently available for free will always be free. Please enjoy and let me know what needs work!

Thanks, Ben
