OpenSCAD Graph Editor:

I'm really fond of visual programming tools such as node editors and Blockly, so this really appeals to me.

This was just announced on Reddit:

w/ releases for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows:

It's already been updated once since announcement, and the manual seems really good:

It seems a really promising tool, and the discussion on the Discord was quite enlightening. https://discord.com/invite/AsxWyczCJF

It supports all of OpenSCAD, and is extensible and able to use existing text/coded modules (BOSL-2 is cited as an example), and seems really promising --- I'm going to try porting: https://github.com/WillAdams/gcodepreview to it, just so I can re-factor the code and hopefully get a better understanding of it visually.
