This now supports exporting a DXF or SVG as shown in:
https://seasick.github.io/openscad-web-gui/?https://raw.githubusercontent.com/WillAdams/Design_Into_3D/master/designinto3dboxfitted.scad

(unless you're running the Edge browser on Windows 11, then you'll get an error message)
which will allow one to load a file into a CAM tool such as Carbide Create and make a project on a CNC machine.

Discussing the DXF/SVG support on Github now:
https://github.com/seasick/openscad-web-gui/issues/8

(well, I asked, the developer provided, and now I'm actually thinking about it)
What would be the best way for this web version to differentiate between producing a DXF or STL?
Are there command-line hooks which could be used?
Would it be possible to set the "Generate_DXF_or_STL" variable using:
-D [ --D ] arg              var=val -pre-define variables

and have that over-ride the Customizer setting?
(asked that on Github)
Is there some other aspect/feature which should be used?

With DXF/SVG support in place, I was able to work up a design using this and cut it:
