My pet use case is: "My naive approach as a programmer would be: `pen := new Pen(q,r,s,t); box := new Box( pen.L, pen.W, pen.H )`" along with being able to sometimes work with the whole pen, and sometimes touch the pen vs. the cap separately.
Since it's all javascript, it seems like there's a chance that this use case would work (ie: `p = Pen(...).render().getWidth()`)? Additionally, your intermediate step screenshots really makes it seem like a SketchUp-ish GUI would be perfect! Obviously a ton of work, but SketchUp's "grab face + extrude / push", but if it were "sticky" to the underlying parametric components seems like it'd be an awesome combo... something like group/components, but backed by code instead of GUI-only (or GUI-centric) editing.
This looks like it could do the same thing for constraint modeling. That's awesome!
Which operations are supported? (Booleans? ...)
Where's the API link?
...finally, was this vibe-coded?
Inquiring minds want to know!
> Features in the docs
The Docs section of the website has "Installation", "Editor setup", and "Your First Model".
Not a list of operations/features.
The front page lists some (extrusion, fillets), but not all.
Is the entirety of OpenCASCADE exposed to the user via the JS API, or are you only supporting a curated subset?
There is a guide section and one tutorial: https://fluidcad.io/docs/guides/
This week will be all for documentation.
It is only a subset of features focused on solid modeling. Surface modeling will come in future versions
