All 3 of these are using the same geometry kernel - siemens parasolid.
Most open source CAD software is using OCCT (cascade).
It’s the kernel that brings a lot of the capability. Check out “plasticity” (https://www.plasticity.xyz/ https://www.plasticity.xyz/ ) for an example of a single developers implementation of the parasolid kernel
- jpm_sd 2y agoI tried plasticity and found it unusable. I couldn't fathom how to design anything without dimensioning!
