Tutorials

The following tutorials are recommended:

Grasshopper Conventions


Described here are some drawing conventions we use in the Robotic Building Lab for Grasshopper. The aim is to create clear organizational structures and descriptions of how and why a script is developed in a certain way so that it is easy to understand. A template using these conventions is provided here:
File:1.GH Conventions-GH Template.gh

Organisation


The Grasshopper scripts are organized according to certain principles considering the layout. Every script starts with a title and abstract that contains a general description of the script does and for what purpose. Make sure to save the file while in this view so this is visible when the file is opened:

The components are organized and ordered in groups and subgroups. Every group has at least a title. If required it also contains a textual description in a panel. In general, the groups are colored white. The smallest groups are titled in the group header, a level above that by a scribble with font-size 25, and the main groups with a scribble with font-size 50. All the wires which reduce the readability of the script are set to display 'Hidden'.

The panels containing the textual descriptions are also white:
