Three weeks since launch. Nearly 30,000 people have built something with Pascal, and the repo just crossed 10,000 stars on GitHub. Here's what shipped.
Vibe editing
You can now describe what you want and Pascal will build it. Type "a two-bedroom apartment with an open kitchen" and watch the floor plan appear in 3D. The AI generates walls, doors, rooms, and furniture placement from your description.
It's not a one-shot thing. You can keep prompting — "make the living room bigger," "add a balcony" — and Pascal updates the model. When you want precision, switch to manual tools and adjust everything by hand. The two modes work together.
Studio rendering
The new Studio tab renders your buildings with photorealistic quality. Point a virtual camera at your model, tweak the lighting and materials, and export an image that looks like a real photograph.
This is useful for presentations, client reviews, or just seeing what your design actually feels like before anything gets built. Materials respond to light correctly — glass refracts, wood shows grain, concrete has texture.
New tools
A batch of things that were missing from v1:
- Stairs — draw staircases between floors. Pick a start and end point, choose the style (straight, L-shaped, spiral), and Pascal figures out the geometry.
- Items library — drag and drop furniture, fixtures, and decor from a built-in catalog. Beds, tables, sinks, appliances, plants — searchable and categorized.
- File assets — import your own 3D models and textures. Drop an OBJ or GLB file and place it anywhere in the scene.
- Fork projects — duplicate any public project and make it yours. Good for starting from a reference design or remixing community work.
10,000 stars
The Pascal Editor is fully open-source under the AGPL license. Every feature above shipped as a public commit. We're not going to change that.
If you want to follow development, report bugs, or contribute — the repo is the best place to start.
What's next
Collaboration (real-time multi-user editing), more AI capabilities (generate from images and sketches), and an expanded items catalog. Shipping weekly.
