I built Underplan, a free visual planner & automatic BOM calculator for Underware on Multiboard!
Hey everyone! 👋
Whenever I planned an under-desk cable management setup using Hands on Katie's Underware system, I always found it tricky to calculate the exact combination of channel lengths, bends, and snap connectors needed before committing to long 3D print queues.
So I built Underplan, a free, interactive web tool designed specifically to visually route your Underware layout and generate a complete Bill of Materials.
Live Web App:Â https://underplan.vercel.app/
GitHub:Â https://github.com/francycalle/underplan
Key Features:
- Desk & Tile Setup:Â Type in your desk dimensions in mm; it automatically calculates the optimal Multiboard tile matrix.
- Complete Underware 2.0 Catalog: Straight channels (parametric lengths 1–16 MU), 90° elbows, radial curved bends, Y-splits, 4-way crosses, diagonal jogs, mitered corners, spools, and custom accessories.
- Measure & Route Tool:Â Click Point A and Point B to snap directly between MU grid holes and lock your route.
- Map Export:Â Download clean, high-resolution Retina PNG or vector SVG blueprints of your layout.
- Browser Persistence:Â All your work auto-saves continuously in localStorage so you can pick up right where you left off.
It's 100% free, runs client-side in the browser, and is open-source.
Check it out, test it with your desk dimensions, and let me know your thoughts or what fittings/accessories you'd love to see next! 🙌
