👋 Hi, I'm Patrik!

I am a software engineer from BME. I strongly believe that the gap between digital software and physical manufacturing should be bridged with clean, automated, and accessible tools.

🛠️ What I am working on

My flagship open-source project is the 3D Printer Slicer API. It is a fully Dockerized, production-ready microservice that automates the entire 3D slicing process.

The project's X account: @3d_psa

Instead of manually opening a slicing software, developers and makers can use my API to:

• Automatically slice 3D models (.stl, .obj, .3mf) using PrusaSlicer or Orca Slicer.
• Calculate precise print times, material usage, and dynamic pricing for both FDM and SLA (resin) technologies.
• Instantly convert 2D images (Lithophanes) or Vector graphics (.svg, .dxf, .pdf) into fully printable 3D objects.

🤔 Why do I need your sponsorship?

Developing, testing, and running resource-heavy slicing engines in the cloud requires significant compute power. Your sponsorship will directly help me:

1. Cover Server Costs: Maintaining the VPS infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring systems where the live API and test environments run.
2. Dedicate More Time: Open-source development takes hundreds of hours. Your support allows me to focus on adding new features, improving documentation, and answering community issues faster.
3. Keep it Open: I want to ensure that these tools remain free and accessible for the maker and developer community forever.

Whether you are a hobbyist who saved time using my code, or a company integrating my API into your business workflow, your support means the world to me.

Thank you for helping me build the future of automated 3D printing! ☕🚀
