Tried spline and it actually works pretty well for basic stuff. The USB suggestion is cool, but school blocks those too 😭

OffDocs has Blender 2.8 running in the browser, but it's super slow and laggy. Better to wait until you can get decent hardware.

I had a friend lose weeks of work because the platform only exported to their proprietary format.

You might want to consider getting a cheap used laptop instead. Even a $400 laptop with Ryzen can run Blender decently these days. Much better than struggling with browser limitations.

That way you can run it without installing. You just need access to another computer to set it up.

- Spline (modern, good for basic modeling)
- TinkerCAD (more CAD oriented, but works)
- Figuro (newer option)

Just be sure to check their terms - some require public sharing of models.

My school Chromebook won't let me install Blender (admin restrictions), but I really want to practice 3D modeling during breaks. Looking for something that works in the browser - mainly interested in polygon modeling with modifiers, not sculpting. Any suggestions? Free options preferred!
