CNC Simulator

CNC Simulator is a brand-new standalone desktop application focused on G-code driven carving simulation.

Goals

• Import and inspect G-code files
• Simulate the carved result directly from G-code
• Support 2D engraving, 2.5D carving, and 3D relief workflows
• Preview stock, tool, and toolpath in 3D
• Export simulated stock as STL

Tech Stack

• Desktop shell: Tauri 2
• Frontend: React + TypeScript + Vite
• Rendering: Three.js with WebGL2
• Native simulation engine: Rust

Project Layout

• src/: React application
• src-tauri/: Rust desktop shell and native commands
• docs/: Architecture and implementation notes

Status

This repository is intentionally new and independent. It does not depend on legacy project code.

Next Milestones

1. Add file import and project workspace state
2. Finalize Rust G-code parser coverage
3. Display simulated height field as a live mesh
4. Add STL export workflow
5. Add playback and analysis tools
