Title: Swill’s plate generator not working?
Post by: BlastoSupreme on Mon, 04 January 2021, 11:42:08
Hi all!

I’m in the early stages of designing another keyboard and I noticed that Swills cad website tool doesn’t seem to load. Is it not working for anyone else? Anyone know of a good alternative?

I've prefered ai03's plate generator over swillkb, https://kbplate.ai03.com/ (https://kbplate.ai03.com/).

maybe a bit late to the party but swill's will not load in https only in http, although i also can't add holes to the plates, it just completely ignores any cutting instructions, even when i copy paste the example in the documentation, does anyone knows how to make cutting operations work?

Http vs https, just means they don't have an ssl certificate for the domain. Not a big deal for sites that do not do monetary transactions. Though some browsers/OSs treat anything without an ssl like it's a threat.

most site without ssl will still answer https request and the browser will error out with a security error, here it does not block it or answer with http it just does not answer anything like it it did not exist at all.
and script over unencrypted links are also a security concern, could get contaminated by malicious code in transit, although it is rather unlikely.

still nether allows for custom mounting system as ai03's do not allow any customization and swill's allows it but then promptly ignores it
