Nothing flashy, but I’m geeking the hell out and wanted to share:
I’ve been quietly working on NodePen, and I’ve thought for a while that a strong integration with Speckle was the best way forward. Stoked to see everything playing nice together.
Under the hood, this is:
- NodePen client creates/modifies a json representation of a Grasshopper graph
- Rhino Compute server takes the json, makes a Grasshopper document, and solves it
- Speckle takes the Rhino geometry as a
displayValueon an object and commits it to a stream - NodePen client is notified of the new object, uses the Speckle Viewer to load and view it
Now that everyone’s talking, I’m looking forward to making it sing a bit. Thanks mountains for the help so far. Many more questions to come. (Hopefully involving code references in the repo soon.)
And, most importantly, thanks for making Speckle. It’s been a real pleasure to work with.
