threadlib is a library of standard threads for `OpenSCAD
<https://www.openscad.org>`__. It is based on Helges
excellent `threadprofile.scad
<https://github.com/MisterHW/IoP-satellite/tree/master/OpenSCAD%20bottle%20threads>`__
to create nice threads with lead-in / lead-out tapers. Check out his `article on
generating nice threads

Hackaday.

In contrast to other thread libraries such as `openscad-threads

<https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1659079>`__, threadlib does not make you look
up diameters and pitches and maybe even thread-profiles in tables and norms: It
has these tables built in.
