This project provides a web interface for converting Gerber PCB layout files into 3D STL models using OpenSCAD.
It uses a Dash (Flask) backend with file upload, server-side conversion, and download.
- Upload
.gbror.zipGerber files - Convert to
.stlusing OpenSCAD - Download the STL for 3D printing or preview
- Runs serverlessly on Google Cloud Run
- Python 3.8+
- OpenSCAD (CLI)
- Flask / Dash
