    I have been working on a .net wrapper for opencascade (https://github.com/veggielane/EngrCAD) but opencascade interop from .net is a pain. I also fell in and out of love with SDF, as most CAM tools need BREP.

    I agree with people in this thread, the world needs more CAD kernels. I also think that we need a language agnostic markup language to represent the BREP.

    Fornjot is architected to be language-agnostic. Rust is just the easiest language to support, given that the rest of the project is written in it too.

    I (author of Fornjot) don't have any near-term plans to add support for other languages, but I hope that people will start experimenting (and someone already has: https://github.com/WeirdConstructor/Fornjot/tree/wlambda_int...).
