About gotoGDL

gotoGDL is a curated link portal for GDL — the Geometric Description Language used to build parametric objects in ArchiCAD. No cookies. No tracking.

What is this?

GDL (Geometric Description Language) is the scripting language used to create parametric objects in Graphisoft ArchiCAD. It is a powerful but niche technology with a scattered community spread across dozens of websites, forums, and manufacturer portals.

gotoGDL brings these resources together in one place: a manually curated, categorised directory of everything relevant to GDL development — from official documentation to manufacturer BIM libraries, from community forums to commercial object shops.

Categories

  • Documentation — References, official guides, online courses
  • Developer — GDL professionals and studios
  • Download Sites — Free and paid object libraries
  • Object Shops — Commercial GDL object stores
  • Manufacturer — BIM content from industry (furniture, doors, sanitary, …)
  • Blogs — Articles and field notes
  • Forum — Q&A and community threads
  • Communities — Where GDL developers gather
  • Software — Editors, converters and tools

Who maintains this?

gotoGDL is maintained by b-prisma, a studio specialising in GDL object development for manufacturers and architects. Related projects include selfGDL.de (GDL command reference) and GDLschmiede.de (GDL knowledge base).

Quality & Curation

Every link is manually reviewed before it is added. The goal is relevance over quantity: only resources that genuinely help GDL developers make it into the directory.
