I developed this after visiting makerspaces around the world and finding that parametric design was too inaccessible. I also wanted to provide people with a tool to learn about powerful ideas in programming while making stuff.
It draws lots of inspiration from the Logo language and I received a lot of feedback from some of Logo's creators. While drawing inspiration from Logo, Gram is actually quite different with tools like layers and lots of built-in functions for making things which can be fabricated.
Thank you! It's amazing how much of a difference that simple ui mechanic makes. Also, glad to hear that it imports well for you. Inkscape is a very common target for laser cutting, so I've had the chance to test it out a bunch.
