The '''GunCAD Index''' is a search engine for [[3D Printing|3D-printable]] gun designs on [[Odysee]]/[[LBRY]]. It is [[Open-Source|open-source software]].

The '''GunCAD Index''' is a search engine for [[3D Printing|3D-printable]] gun designs ({{Glossary|GunCAD|guncad}}) on [[Odysee]]/[[LBRY]]. It is {{Glossary|Open-Source|[[open-source software]].}}

== Background ==

The GunCAD Index was created in early 2025 by [[The Shittinator]] in response to personal frustrations with searching for designs on Odysee. It was released on March 8th, 2025 and has ~~received~~ continuous development ~~effort~~ since.

== Features ==

=== Searching ===

Arguably the most important feature of the Index, users can perform full-text searches against its database for designs. Searches match against several fields of each release via a custom search algorithm.

=== Channel Auto-Discovery ===

The Index automatically discovers new ~~authors~~ based on a number of criteria:

The Index automatically discovers new gun designers based on a number of criteria:

* Channels for which any one single release has the "guncad" tag

* Channels for which any one single release has the "guncad" tag; and

* Channels for which:

It requires close contact with LBRY, and as such mandates the use of a [[lbrynet]] node. It periodically spiders LBRY in search of new channels it infers to be related to GunCAD ("authors") and the designs they produce ("releases") via a number of heuristics.
