Send your 3D models directly from Blender to SimplyPrint for slicing and printing

## About

The SimplyPrint extension for Blender bridges the gap between 3D modeling and 3D printing.
Design your model in Blender, then export and send it to your printer in a single click - no need to manually export files, open a browser, or fumble with SD cards.

The extension adds a **SimplyPrint** panel to Blender's sidebar where you can log in, pick a printer, choose your export format (STL, OBJ or 3MF) and hit print.
Your model goes straight to SimplyPrint for slicing and printing - or into your queue for later.
