Geometry net learning support app produced by Digital Gene. This is an application that assists in understanding the relationship between a net cube and a solid cube. The app shows the cube gradually changing, moving from a net into a solid. The viewer can understand where the surfaces, sides, and points connect. [Add colors and symbols for easy understanding] Symbols and colors can be added to the surfaces, sides, and points. Various problems can be created and tested out. Which surface will face surface A? What direction will the surface face when assembling the net? Which net is the correct one for a dice? Etc. [Works with all the nets] All 11 different nets can be used. They can be rotated or flipped horizontally.
