Browser-based design, toolpath preview, and job control for laser engravers and cutters.

openlaser is a browser-based workspace for designing, previewing and running laser cutting and engraving jobs. It imports vector drawings and images, assigns layer-specific processing settings, and previews burn and travel paths. Compatible desktop browsers can control GRBL machines through Web Serial. Projects can also be saved or exported, and the static application can be hosted without a backend.
