NWOM

New Way of Making

Source ↗

Every world shown here is authenticated against its checked-in NWOM publication chain.

The substrate

A project stays legible from idea to object.

NWOM keeps human intent, machine truth, exact outputs, and design history together in ordinary files. The compiler remains the geometry authority; this static gallery only previews its authenticated publications.

  1. Source

    Say what is true

    design.nwom.yaml carries typed entities, relations, dimensions, controls, and capability versions. INTENT.md records why the project exists and what still has to be measured.

  2. Compile

    Make the claims close

    Deterministic checks resolve exact B-reps, interference, scene composition, and artifact hashes. Changed source cannot masquerade as a current publication.

  3. Authenticate

    Ship only the closure

    Each gallery world passes its publication marker, artifact digest, scene-manifest subset closure, and current-source revision checks before it enters the baked index.

  4. Make

    Hand off exact outputs

    Depending on the project: STEP assemblies, GLB scenes, cut lists, BOMs, vendor order packets, assembly notes, and analysis. A human remains the order gate.

The selected publication

Gridfinity Drawer

The selected world's intent is loaded from the same baked static index as the sidebar.

P

Physical only

Entities carrying the nonphysical role are hidden before framing. Keep-outs, FOV cones, and survey witnesses never become gallery fog.

A

Authenticated

The GLB and scene manifest come from a current compiler publication whose complete artifact closure still matches its recorded digests.

L

Lit as designed

Point, spot, and directional lights from each scene manifest are applied over a neutral gallery base. The Gridfinity bins keep their compiled glow.

S

Static by construction

The world index is baked at build time. The browser reads same-origin files only: no hosted project service, user account, upload surface, or second geometry source.

Prototype gallery — not order-ready. An authenticated scene proves the checked-in publication is current; it does not replace tape-measure verification, engineering review, hardware selection, or the project's explicit order gates.

Local-first by design

Open the real workbench.

The project library is filesystem-backed and loopback-only. There are no accounts, uploads, or hosted project services on this site. Clone the repository, compile a project, then enter the production workbench used to build these worlds.

NWOM never places orders. It produces authenticated artifacts and packets a human reviews and executes.
