Soon it will be getting another mode to support SLA printers.Īnother unique aspect of being completely browser-based is that it’s natively integrated into both Onshape and Thingiverse. It supports 3D printers, CNC tool path generation for 2.5 and 3 axis milling, as well as SVG output for laser cutters.

But what really sets Kiri apart is that it has multiple modes of use. Running entirely in-browser and thus always being up-to-date is one great feature. It’s been around for years and gets updates roughly every week. User data stays local/private to the operating browser. It runs entirely in browser with no cloud service dependencies.
