Fornjot: A next-generation Code-CAD application
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.

Is there a tutorial for making a CAD tool with Three.js?
For proper CAD in browser, you'd need something like opencascadejs. I've integrated it to Polygonjs, here is an example scene, and a video intro

CadQuery –- A Python parametric CAD scripting framework based on OCCT
That confirms the impression I had, I guess they are just so complex that building a new open source one from scratch would be Herculean effort. Guess OCCT is the only option for now.
The itch I would love to scratch is an online real-time collaborative parametric cad app using CRTDs. Current thinking is combining OpenCascade compiled to WASM [0] with Yjs[1], but frankly don’t have the time.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (45/2021)!
Can I access a library that is compiled to WASM (e.g. openCascade.js) directly from a rust client web app that runs in the browser? The library is lgpl so I'd want to "dynamically link" to it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing EngrCAD and opencascade.js you can also consider the following projects:
CascadeStudio - A Full Live-Scripted CAD Kernel in the Browser
