Nothing that CAD and engineering students would be familiar with. There are some open source options but those aren’t taught at school afaik.

- culturestate 12d agoNot that it's necessarily suited for Apple's use case, but Autodesk's Fusion runs natively on Mac.
- fingerlocks 12d agoI think it’s just an electron wrapper over a browser version. Impressively sluggish, clunky, and unresponsive for a so-called native app
- jasode 12d agoAutodesk Fusion GUI uses the C++ Qt library, not Electron. Link to my previous comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24252787 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24252787
- fingerlocks 12d agoOkay that’s even more pathetic. Is it using only CPU bound software rendering? I do 3d programming on MacOS. I can assure you that it’s not slow because it’s just super-duper complex. No, it just sucks.
- tohnjitor 12d agoMost CAD programs take little advantage of multicore or GPU, if any. It's all about single threaded CPU performance.
