What is File type to use for developing GCode?
In what context?
Folks work up G-Code in a number of ways:
- using a CAD/CAM toolstack such as Carbide Create (.c2d) to assign toolpaths: https://docs.carbide3d.com/assembly/carbidecreate/video-tutorials/#toolpaths and then export G-Code: https://docs.carbide3d.com/assembly/carbidecreate/video-tutorials/#saving-and-simulation
- various programmatic things such as tplang.org
- direct hand-coding G-Code in a text editor — note that this is rather tedious when working with Grbl, but see: https://github.com/NRSoft/GSharp
