 # openscad-py
-Python OOP precompiler for OpenSCAD's language
+
+A Python OOP precompiler for OpenSCAD's language
+
+OpenSCAD ( https://openscad.org/ ) uses a functional scripting language to define solid 3D CAD models.
+As such, it is a prefix language (modifiers go before the things they modify).
+
+OpenSCADPy allows one to write OpenSCAD scripts using an object representation, which uses method calls
+to describe modifications. This way, modifications are written after the objects they modify in a postfix
+fashion, more closely resembling a procedural ordering of steps in the creation of the models.
+It also contains convenience functions to define a wider range of primitives, as well as some vector operations.
+
+## Example
+
+```
+Cube([1, 1, 2]).move([0, 0, 1])
+```
+
+becomes
+
+
+```
+translate(v=[0, 0, 1]) { cube(size=[1, 1, 2], center=false); }
+```
