OpenSCAD Libraries: MCAD
You can get a heap of helpful parts and components as what is known as the MCAD library on GitHub!
Single-line commands like gear(10,80) drive the library, which is still in active development, but I’m already loving the handy tools added so far. I think a best practice for using OpenSCAD is definitely to make libraries out of as much of what you do as possible, so your work can get built on more easily. Cleaner code reproduces more quickly!

My favorite library I ever started, abandoned, and came back to find flourishing under new owners
motors.scad is my favorite tool: stepper_motor_mount(17) makes a nema 17 stepper motor mount in 2d so you can laser cut it or extrude/difference it to use it in a printed part. Not only that but it also gives you a mochup of what the stepper will look like so you can see how it fits with your part!
<3 MCAD and all those awesome people making it awesome!
