We believe in free software!
What is Zaccord?
A business and webshop producing 3D‑printed products — offering contract printing and prototyping for both companies and individuals.
Why open source?
Our goal is to popularize 3D printing technology and show what the industry is capable of. We encourage everyone to experiment and play with the source code to get to know the software side of 3D printing more closely — especially the structure of STL files, price calculation, and working with 3D models.
What technologies power Zaccord?
The entire site is JavaScript‑based, allowing one language to cover the whole architecture. The server runs on Node.js, the database is MySQL, and the client is vanilla JS. We also use various external libraries and APIs for different algorithms, including a C program (also a CLI tool) that underpins price calculation and STL handling.
How can I contribute as a software developer?
You can access Zaccord’s full source code on GitHub and contribute via a pull request. It’s a good idea to contact us to coordinate before starting development. If your contribution is significant, we’ll thank you by sending a 3D‑printed item of your choice for free.
How can I contribute as a CAD engineer/3D printing specialist?
If you are experienced in CAD, Fusion 360 or Blender design & modeling, and you have hands‑on experience with 3D printing, get in touch with us for more information.
