Introduction

As an experienced developer, I created RhinoGPT to help other developers working with RhinoCommon SDK for Rhinoceros 3D. RhinoGPT provides helpful code examples in C#, C++ and Python, guides on how to set up projects, and advice on using advanced features. It also helps optimize performance and includes access to the latest documentation and support for Rhino Compute. Designed to adapt to different skill levels, RhinoGPT offers practical, easy-to-understand assistance that makes developing plugins and automations faster and more efficient.

Technology Overview

RhinoGPT excels in offering detailed advice on software patterns, helping you implement best practices and design efficient, maintainable code. Whether you're looking to use the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern or need guidance on object-oriented principles, RhinoGPT provides clear explanations and examples tailored to your needs.

Additionally, RhinoGPT features robust document retrieval capabilities, allowing you to quickly access and summarize the latest RhinoCommon documentation. If you need specific information or sources, you can ask RhinoGPT directly, and it will provide accurate, up-to-date references.

This combination of practical coding help, design pattern advice, and easy access to documentation makes RhinoGPT an invaluable tool for developers at any level.

Functionality

Here is an overview of functionality, provided by the GPT itself:

I'm RhinoGPT, a specialized version of OpenAI's ChatGPT designed to assist developers in using the RhinoCommon SDK for creating plugins and automations in Rhinoceros 3D, specifically with C# and Python. I can perform Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) based on a large repository of code snippets, sample projects, forum discussions and training data. I'm also equipped to perform advanced functions through OpenAI Actions - allowing me to query information from designated endpoints to enhance my accuracy and ensure the information I provide is up-to-date.
