OpenSCAD Ubuntu 21.10 Installation – Step-by-step

GNU/Linux Ubuntu 21.10 Installing OpenSCAD – QuickStart Guide

Hi! The Tutorial shows you Step-by-Step How to Install OpenSCAD on Ubuntu 21.10 Impish GNU/Linux Desktop.

And OpenSCAD for Ubuntu Impish is a software for creating solid 3D CAD models. It is free software and available for Linux/UNIX, Windows and macOS. Unlike most Free Software for Creating 3D Models (such as Blender) it does Not Focus on the Artistic Aspects of 3D Modeling but instead on the CAD aspects.

Most Noteworthy: OpenSCAD is not an interactive modeller. Instead, it is something like a 3D-compiler that reads in a Script File that Describes the Object and renders the 3D Model from this script file. This gives you (the designer) full control over the modeling process and enables you to easily change any step in the modeling process or make designs that are defined by configurable parameters.

Finally, the Guide include instructions on How to Getting-Started with OpenSCAD on Ubuntu Systems.
