Modly, a local open-source 3D mesh generation tool that runs entirely on NVIDIA GPUs with no cloud dependency, posted a one-week update (51 upvotes, 14 comments) after adding TripoSG and Microsoft's TRELLIS models. The tool hit ~700 GitHub stars during its first beta week, converting any image into exportable 3D models (GLB, OBJ, STL, PLY). All inference happens locally with no queues and no API costs. Part of a broader trend of 3D generation becoming accessible to individual builders through MIT-licensed open-source tooling.
