- Akse is a beginner-friendly 3D modeling tool designed for kids and teens, focusing on simplicity and real-world measurements in millimeters.
- It runs entirely in a web browser with no installation required, is free to use, and supports STL export for 3D printing.
- The tool uses primitive shapes and a blueprint feature for 2D drawing to create 3D models, with features like boolean holes, precision snapping, and undo/redo functionality.
- Projects can be saved locally or in the cloud via a Skaperiet account, and the software is open-source under AGPL-3.0, allowing self-hosting and customization.
- Akse supports both mouse and touch interfaces, includes color themes, and is developed by Skaperiet, a maker space for educational workshops.
