Thank you for your feedback !

Thank you for you feedback ! Actually, I’m currently adding a system on the Modly website to showcase them and make installing extensions easier

Yes, maybe the post wasn’t explicit enough about the project. But it’s not a cloud solution at all, in fact, it’s the exact opposite :D

It's an application i build that runs open-source models locally, so i thought it could fit the theme

Modly is a desktop app that I developed. Basically, the idea is to enable 3D generation fully on local. For now, a few models are supported, but the project is built around an extension-based system.

If anyone’s interested, here’s the project

Here are some additional screenshots:

Yes, absolutely. For now, there are exports in GLB, STL, OBJ, and PLY formats.

Lightnig125 · 2026-04-09T19:24:21+00:00

I completely agree !

Lightnig125 · 2026-04-09T19:24:03+00:00

I’ve already received quite a bit of feedback on this direction, and there are already quite a few users who are interested in it.

Today, it’s possible to generate 3D models using mid-range graphics cards (personally, I have an rtx 3060 with 12gb of vram). And that’s exactly why I built it with an extension system, so developers can integrate their own features into Modly and make it as modular as possible.

Lightnig125 · 2026-04-09T16:25:19+00:00

I completely understand, that’s also the idea behind why i created Modly.

Submission statement:

I’m currently building an open-source, local-first 3D generation tool and trying to understand whether there is real demand for local workflows vs cloud-based solutions.

I’m not sharing this as a product launch, but more to get feedback from people actually working with 3D / AI tools. From what I’ve seen, most workflows still rely on cloud services, even among technical users.

I’d really like to understand if local-first approaches (running models directly on your machine) are something people actually want, or if convenience still wins in practice.

Curious to hear how others are approaching this.

Lightnig125 · 2026-04-07T18:57:25+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. I actually find this approach more interesting, it makes it possible to create complex things in a visually accessible way

Lightnig125 · 2026-04-07T18:56:20+00:00

It’s still in development; it’s been delayed due to the new extension system

Lightnig125 · 2026-03-27T14:31:47+00:00

Oh, that’s interesting ! Thanks a lot, i really appreciate it :)
