Collaboration Techniques with Grasshopper, Python and Hoopsnake

In this course, you will learn techniques for developing Grasshopper definitions that can be easily shared and reused.  Along the way, you'll build a randomly spaced screen for a building facade.

Don begins with Grouping, Naming and general organization techniques. As you build the definition, you will learn how to utilize the Python Component to dramatically simplify your definition.  Finally, you'll learn the basics of using Hoopsnake to perform looping- a common Grasshopper operation that usually creates a serious mess in your definition- Don will show you how Hoopsnake cleans this mess all up.

When you're done, you'll have learned a variety of collaborative techniques for extending the utility of your Grasshopper definitions- and you'll build a definition that generates a patterened screen.
