Blank Canvas: Grasshopper 2 from the Ground Up

SEP24
09:30
  • This workshop teaches participants how to use Grasshopper 2, a complete rewrite of the popular algorithm-building tool.
  • It is designed for beginners with no prior experience as well as seasoned Grasshopper 1 users.
  • Attendees will learn fundamentals of GH2 including data flow, native data types, and parametric component use through guided exercises.

About this event

GH2 isn't an incremental update to Grasshopper — it's a full rewrite with new data structures, a new component library, and a different underlying approach to building algorithms. The workshop treats "no prior GH1 experience" as a feature, not a gap.
A progressive sequence of guided exercises building fluency with GH2's fundamentals — canvas navigation, data flow, data types, lists, and the components that manipulate them. By the afternoon, participants are assembling multi-step definitions on their own.
Works equally well for absolute beginners and seasoned GH1 users encountering GH2 for the first time — no prior Rhino, Grasshopper, or programming knowledge required.
Learning objectives:
Understand the GH2 canvas and data flow
Work with GH2's native data types, lists, and matching behavior
Use core geometry, math, and logic components for parametric relationships
Read and debug an unfamiliar GH2 definition
Understand GH2's architectural differences from GH1
Access the Rhino MCP GH2 Tools
