Hello all, I learned you can automate slicing via Windows Batch files and the command line per the Slic3r documentation here. I then found a video outlining the process and was able to copy the process effectively. However, as a MechE a lot of my software knowledge is limited. I would love to turn this sort of process into a tool with a UI where you can drag and drop files and get back the sliced G code. Its' been recommended to me to try doing that as a web app with the support of tools like nextjs, nodejs, and express. However, I wanted to get some recommendations from the community on how this might be best done or if the current approach is a decent one. Cheers! https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,890494,890494#msg-890494 Thu, 13 Aug 2026 01:29:06 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,890494,890601#msg-890601 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,890494,890601#msg-890601 Leo_Aguiar Slic3r Sun, 25 Sep 2022 09:21:51 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,890494,890494#msg-890494 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,890494,890494#msg-890494
