Cindr3D is a browser-based CAD, slicing, and printer-control workspace for makers and self-hosted workshops. It combines design tools, print preparation, multi-printer monitoring, and local AI-assisted workflows in one web app.
Use this wiki as the practical handbook for setting up, running, and extending the project.
- Getting Started - install dependencies, run the app, and build production assets.
- Feature Overview - understand the Design, Prepare, 3D Printer, and AI workspaces.
- Printer Workflows - connect printers, monitor jobs, use cameras, and manage firmware-specific features.
- AI Assistant and MCP - pair local AI clients with Cindr3D's localhost MCP server.
- Self Hosting and Updates - serve Cindr3D from a static host or Orange Pi and use the optional updater.
- Development and Testing - project layout, useful scripts, checks, and GitNexus guidance.
- Contributing and Security - contribution expectations and security reporting notes.
- CAD and Modeling - sketching, features, configurations, drawings, mesh repair, and exports.
- Slicing and Print Preview - plate setup, profiles, G-code preview, object labels, and calibration.
- Integrations and Automation - webhooks, chat notifications, MQTT, Home Assistant, enclosure, and safety automation.
- Release and Roadmap - version notes, release assets, shipped phases, and upcoming work.
- Troubleshooting - common setup, build, hosting, printer, and AI/MCP issues.
- Visual Interface Tour - screenshot-led tour of the landing page and main workspaces.
- Printer Interface Gallery - focused screenshots of the connected printer dashboard, status, macros, analytics, and bed height map.
- Dashboard Layout Editing - screenshot walkthrough of editing dashboard cards, toggling hidden cards, and customizing the layout.
- Prepare Object Walkthrough - object-loaded Prepare workflow with cropped screenshots, printability checks, slicing preview, and G-code inspection.
- G-code Preview Simulation and Breakpoints - focused walkthrough of G-code panel lines, breakpoints, simulation playback, scrubbing, and section view.
