Data Management

Data Management covers how geometry and project files are imported, exported, versioned, and stored in Zoo Design Studio.

Zoo Design Studio projects are folders of files. The main project source is human-readable text: KCL files for model logic and, when present, project.toml for project metadata. That makes projects portable, inspectable, syncable, and practical to version with normal developer tools.

Topics

• Import covers bringing CAD files, models, and KCL into a project.
• Export covers writing geometry and project output to other formats.
• Version Control covers using Git and other text-based revision workflows with Zoo Design Studio projects.
• Aquarium covers browser-based project and data-management workflows.
• Project Libraries covers organizing projects across local folders and cloud-backed libraries.
• Cloud Sync covers syncing projects through your Zoo account and resolving sync conflicts.
• Default Project Folder explains how the legacy single-folder setting maps to Project Libraries.
