I made a framework to write OpenSCAD code in Ruby. Helps a lot to keep yourself sane on big projects: https://github.com/Joaz/CrystalScad

There's also a similar project for Python [1].

That said, do I understand correctly that the way you assume the users will share their OpenSCAD models is to share the generated OpenSCAD scripts?

My work is heavily inspired by SolidPython. SolidPython, unfortunately has some shortcomings at the syntax (resulting in too many braces to read properly).

I do hope that the people will share the ruby code and not the generated openscad code, as that would be hardly readable.

I not (yet) got ruby installed. Have you an example how https://github.com/Joaz/bulldozer/tree/master Builds in openSCAD format or .stl or even a jpg ?
