Box Designer started as a desktop piece of software in April of 2001 while Rahul Bhargava was at the MIT Media Lab. Along the way, as it evolved into a Rails web app, and then a python web app, others have contributed important pieces:

• @wildsparx on GitHub contributed the DXF output
• @vincentadam87 on GitHub contributed the "no top" option
• eolson [at] mit [dot] edu contributed the original notch length and kerf options
