Pywing is a all-in-one software for hot wire foam CNC cutting. It can generate G-Code for other softwares or directly communicate with a 4-axis(XYUV) Grbl through serial link (see https://github.com/proto3/grbl/tree/hotwire).

It has no drop down menus, so everything you need is visible. Just try scrolling on each field and you will see instantly what it does in the 3D view.
