Grasshopper Meetings – Background
Grasshopper (GH) for Rhino3D is a visual programming language and graphical algorithm editor that is seamlessly integrated with Rhino. Grasshopper allows users to create complex parametric designs and algorithms through a visual interface, without the need for traditional programming code.
Grasshopper User Group Meetings are gatherings where users unite to exchange knowledge, experiences, and insights. During these meetings, participants generally cover various aspects of utilising Grasshopper for design, modelling, and analysis.
The sessions feature presentations from seasoned users, industry experts, and software developers, who highlight innovative projects, exhibit advanced techniques, and present new features or updates. Attendees frequently have the chance to participate in discussions, pose questions, and connect with fellow Grasshopper and Rhino enthusiasts.
These user gatherings play an important role in cultivating a community around Grasshopper and Rhino3D, encouraging collaboration, and offering a platform for users to remain updated on the latest advancements in the software. They provide an excellent opportunity for users to improve their skills, maintain connections within the community, and draw inspiration for their own design and modelling projects.
The next Grasshopper UK meeting will take place in June 2025, to be among the first to hear about our upcoming events make sure you’re signed-up to our newsletter and to the Simply Rhino social channels including LinkedIn and Instagram.
