Comment on SolveSpace – Parametric 2D/3D CAD

Comments

Although apparently(?) less engineering-oriented, check out OpenScad, which has a much wider install base and I think is more mature with a large ecosystem:

Their approach seems different. SolveSpace is interactive-oriented (similar to most CAD programs) whereas OSCAD is code-oriented. Depending on what someone is doing guess they're complementary?

SolveSpace, if it added a python API to its geometry engine and constraint solver would be the best of both worlds and an absolute killer app.
