You can "use" python Files From within openscad and use the Python
functions ad Modules and functions in OpenSCAD.literallyix Them. No Demo
example exists yet. For Python functions as Modules ITS important to know
that objects Pars Go First and Number Pars Go Last.

Great news that it is possible to call Python from OpenSCAD --- is there
an example file showing that?

Getting the Customizer to work with Python in OpenSCAD would be awesome.

I am only a very small gear in this discussion and maybe my hint is
absolute nonsese.. but isn it an idea to create a flatpack version from
openscd, which includes all the necessary python stuff??

OpenSCAD already has both release and beta (= manual selected dev snapshots)
on Flathub.

https://flathub.org/apps/org.openscad.OpenSCAD

The plan is obviously to provide the feature in the official builds in a
way that's easily usable. How long that will take and in what order the
various build will be enabled may depend on the help we get from people
getting this done.

If someone is interested in helping out, specifically for Windows and/or
macOS, find us on IRC.

ciao,
Torsten.
