This is my second C++/Qt app so there will be plenty of changes in how
it's implemented while I design the UI.
Special thanks to everyone on well.com for software and design help.

Warifuru is a tool for using 2d digifab machines. The first
release is focused on supporting the Lasersaur but the design
and architecture will be easy to extend to other X/Y platforms. My
next hardware build is an X/Y plasma cutter and I want that port to go
as easily as possible.
Digifab on a lasercutter usually involves this cycle:
1.) Design something using expensive CAD/Design software
2.) Export to a format that is poorly defined, proprietary, or
has too many variations
3.) Load the exported file on the lasercutter, discover changes
you need to make, go back to step 1
4.) Load the exported file on the lasercutter, decide it's good
and you want to cut as many things as possible out of
a sheet of media. Go back to step 1 and hand-optimize the
layout of N things in a sheet, then start over.
