Keep in mind some OpenSCAD designs use complex library dependencies, and baked source geometry.

The simple language IDE preview pane sometimes chokes on the surfaces that are compiled, and on rare occasion must be done via command line. Thus, some complex designs may take hours to generate a model.

The slicers are meant to be more CAM tool than CAD utility, but people are mixing features as use-cases increase in complexity.

Best of luck, =3
