Project description:
"I want to extend SketchUp with a purpose-built Ruby plugin that lets me drag-and-drop fully parametric cabinets and doors—much like the convenience Coohom provides, but running natively inside SketchUp.

Core goals
• Build Dynamic Components for base, wall and tall cabinets plus a range of door styles.
• Expose size, material/finish and hardware options through a clean graphical UI panel (HTML/CSS dialog or native UI).
• Ensure real-time updates: when I tweak width, height, depth or choose a new finish, the geometry, textures and hardware adjustments must regenerate instantly without losing Dynamic Component integrity.

Scope of work
1. Ruby back-end: modular code that defines each parametric object, handles user inputs, and manages persistent attributes.
2. Dynamic Components: create the initial library (at least three cabinet types and two door variants) with properly nested sub-components for doors, shelves and hardware.
3. UI layer: an intuitive palette where users pick a component, set dimensions, choose material swatches and select hardware from dropdowns or thumbnails.
4. Documentation: install instructions, code comments, and a short video or PDF walkthrough showing the workflow inside SketchUp.
5. Compatibility: SketchUp 2022+ on Windows and macOS, using native Ruby API only—no external gems beyond standard HTML dialog resources.

Nice to have (phase-two ready): hooks that could later connect to external platforms such as Coohom or export BOM/CSV data, so structuring the code for future integration is important.

If you’ve previously shipped SketchUp extensions, especially those involving Dynamic Components and custom UI dialogs, I’d love to see your work. Let me know how you’d approach the architecture and deliverables, plus an indicative timeline for a working prototype and subsequent refinements." (client-provided description)
