- Hey HN! I'm Zach from Adam ( https://adam.new/ ). We’re building an AI co-pilot for mechanical CAD software. As part of our broader research, we built a browser-based Text-to-CAD app ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44182206 ) and are now open sourcing it. This is a React SPA with a Supabase backend. What it does: * Generates parametric 3D models from

- Hi HN, I'm Zach, one of the co-founders of Adam ( https://adam.new ). We've been on HN twice before with text-to-CAD/3D experiments [1][2]. The honest takeaway from those threads: prompt-to-3D model web apps are fun, but serious mechanical engineers don't want a black box that spits out an STL. They want help inside the CAD tool they already use, with full v

# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome
Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #ffffff;
--surface: #fafafa;
--foreground: #080808;
--muted-foreground: #555555;
--accent: #d92380;
--radius: 0px;
--font-heading: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "IBM Plex Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #FFFFFF (~56%) · Surface #FAFAFA (~29%) · Text #080808 (~9%) · Muted Text #555555 (~3%) · Accent #D92380 (~3%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
## Layout & Conversion Structure
- Hero layout: Split Copy & Visual
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Sharp; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Illustration / Character Art
- Conversion CTA: Start Free / Sign Up · Trust bar uses Stacked Avatars & Testimonials
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Video Demo
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with start free / sign up CTA and stacked avatars & testimonials.
- Visual summary: Minimal Monochrome (Light canvas, balanced density) featuring split copy & visual layout and illustration / character art visuals.
## Avoid
- Multi-stop neon gradients
- Heavy drop shadows
- More than one competing accent color
Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.

| Makerworld每次挑模型,我都会先看封面。但封面不告诉我它能用什么耗材。 想知道这个模型用什么耗材、我的机器打不打得了 —— 得点进详情,再点到打印配置,才看到那一排 PLA / PETG 和小小的机型标记。 挑一次模型,20 个候选,来回点六十次。翻回来还记不住哪个是哪个。 对我这种只囤了 [两卷 PETG + 一卷 PLA ] 、机器是 [ A1 ] 的人来说,这两项恰恰是最先要筛掉的:材质不对,打了浪费;机型不支持,连切片都过不去。 问题不是信息没有,是信息放错了地方 —— 它在我决定「点不点」之后才出现。 后来我干脆自己解决了一下:做了个 Chrome 扩展 MakerWorldMate ,把这排信息挪到了卡片上。列表页每张封面左下角直… | — | 2.9M | Undisclosed |
