Managed to get it working and while performance is much better, syntax is downright disgusting. I know it’s Python, but looking at any code written for CQ would give Guido a nightmare. Am not sure looking up to jQuery was a good idea to begin with. I’ll try and give it a shot few more times, but boy does code written in this syntax look ugly and cryptic. Thanks for the recommendation though.

It’s not ideal, no, but I find it better than OpenSCAD for the simple reason that it’s inside of a complete programming language. But that’s rarely needed so, eh?
I don’t know what my ideal code-first solution would look like, but at least there’s multiple options!

It’s great that it’s inside of Python as a language but at the same time sad that they didn’t take advantage of readability of the language. Syntax is very convoluted. But I’ll give it a shot some more times, perhaps there’s some obvious logic am missing.
