Web portal for sharing 3D printing models (STL files) focused in the open source community.
Most of the existing webpages for the sharing of 3D models aren't real open source. We also want to allow users to keep track of their files and the changes that they make, providing the benefits of Git, but without needing technical knowledge.
This project has an idea developed in the Pi Week (8th edition 13-17 July, 2015 http://piweek.com/). The scope of this event is create an appliction in one week using open source tools. The initial application has been developed by BiiT Sourcing Solutions' development team (http://biit-solutions.com/)
The objectives of this project are:
- Upload of binary and ascii STL files.
- Binaryfiles are converted to ascii before being pushed to Git
- Creation of new projects.
- Fork of other user projects.
- Upload and version control of new components.
- 3D rendering of STL files.
Here are some screenshots of the two main pages of the project at version 0.1.0.
This is the view of a gallery populated with some projects (obtained from Github):

It is not so bad for only 5 days of development!
The tools is developed using Java (JDK7), Vaadin, Git as files repository and other tools or frameworks.
The result of the project is a WAR file that can be installed in any application server (as Tomcat or Jetty). Copy the WAR file inside the server must be enought to deploy it. Check the file 'database.properties' and 'settings.conf' for tunning up the database and application configuration.
If you wish to compile the project, it includes all dependencies in the maven file. Running a "mvn clean install" must download all dependencies and compile the entire project. More information about Maven can be found here: https://maven.apache.org/
