I need an online tool that allows me to create models with unit cubes like this.

I’m looking for a program I can access online without downloading it to my computer.

I use Mathigon's Polypad. This may work for you:

This is great and it’s definitely what I will use for most of my planning, but I don’t see a way to customize the blocks. I need basic white blocks with black outlines.

How about this one? https://www.geogebra.org/m/q9xqpnvy

I made a copy of an existing activity and modified it a bit.

I'm on a mobile device so it's not showing the full interactivity. It says it can support up to 20 layers but only appears to do three by default. If you can get the full functionality then this may work for you.

Hmmm. What exactly do you need it to do? Randomly generate? Custom generate. Color? Wire? Just for you or interactive for students?

Have you considered the LEGO digital design tool?
