The current version is an early Beta release. As such, things may break without warning. If you happen to find bugs/issues, please leave a comment below or contact support@intralattice.com

The generative process is split into 3 main modules, each of which has a selection of various components, for a total of 16 components.

1. We first begin with a cell component, which will generate a unit cell. This unit cell is the basis for the lattice topology.
2. The next stage involves a frame component, which will populate a design space with the unit cell, based on various parameters.
3. The final stage involves a mesh component, which will convert the lattice wireframe (a list of curves) to a solid mesh, which can be 3D printed.

The mesh components are inspired by Exoskeleton, an assembly by David Stasiuk & Daniel Piker. I've extended functionality to curves, modified various aspects of the algorithm and encapsulated the process with a data structure. A huge thanks to them for making their work open-source.
