Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Dune 3D – an open source parametric 3D CAD app bassed on OCCT

Best language to bind with (C++, Rust, others ?)
So have I have this project of writing a geometric kernel, something in the vibes of Opencascade : https://dev.opencascade.org/
- Any recommendations for a simple solid modeling API library? Preferably C or C++
-
"Time till Open Source Alternative" - measuring time until a FOSS alternative to popular applications appear
What is this opencascade open source cad. The only thing I find is freeware (not open source) stuff at https://dev.opencascade.org

PrusaSlicer 2.5 beta1 is out and it can import STEP files directly!🧡 So you can skip exporting and sharing STLs completely when it comes to mechanical parts.
They integrated OCCT, so they do now have code to read STEP as part of the code base. Yes, I am aware it is tessellated right now (which is the obvious first step to make it work), but that can be changed in future. Point is: they now have at least half of the necessary code available.

3D library for engineering calculations.
The only thing coming to mind is https://dev.opencascade.org/ - it was the original kernel of the ipad app shapr3d.
-
Which CAD programs are most widely used and which are loved most by engineers in different fields?
The OpenSource cad project, are you talking about this? https://dev.opencascade.org
-
OpenCascade libraries have no symbols?
nvm, here's this:
-
What does Freecad need?
Also, FreeCAD is built on the OCCT library and it inherits many of its limitations from that. Ideally, a lot of issues should be fixed in the library and FreeCAD would automatically be improved. Unfortunately, and I could be wrong, but I don't think FreeCAD developers have much influence on what happens at OCCT, apart from filing bug reports and such.

> I would love to see a successor to OpenSCAD
There is quite a few "code" CAD's around https://github.com/Irev-Dev/curated-code-cad. Cadquery has contraints but isn't really a DSL.

Antimony – computer-aided design tool from the Lisp machine parallel universe
This is a mid-point in Matt Keeter's research.
Start at:
http://mattkeeter.com/research/thesis.pdf
then see:
http://www.mattkeeter.com/projects/kokopelli/
then Antimony (see the article at: http://hackaday.com/2015/05/29/otherworldy-cad-software-hail... ), then the current effort:
https://github.com/libfive/libfive
(and also see: https://www.gitlab.com/kavalogic-inc/tovero "a binding of Libfive to Common Lisp, including a standalone REPL-based viewer"[https://github.com/Irev-Dev/curated-code-cad] can be integrated with https://www.gitlab.com/kavalogic-inc/clive
Currently I'm using OpenSCAD (w/ BlockSCAD as a front-end: https://www.blockscad3d.com because I prefer a sort of visual representation), but have been stymied by the lack of file I/O (I want to write out G-code).
Still looking for a 3D modeling tool which is:
- a node or block editor

What happened Tovero (libfive bindings) and Clive (scene graph and 3D GUI) from Kavalogic and previously hosted on common-lisp.net?
From 2018 through sometime 2020 there seems to have existed two projects surrounding 3D modelling in CL, Tovero as libfive bindings and Clive as some sort of scene graph with a 3D GUI as per this description from a random git commit I found:
- 3D version of MakeCode from Buildbee.com (for making 3D models for 3D printing/CNC)
-
Is there a way to make cad models using programming? Just Curious.
Checkout this resource for a whole host of different options (besides FreeCAD) https://github.com/Irev-Dev/curated-code-cad

To design a new mount for the Chimera 2in2out for the Ender 3, I rebuilt the carriage assembly in OpenScad and partyl QCad.
I tried using python scripting with FreeCad's 2d constraints mechanisms, which I had high hopes for but found it to be too difficult. I did a decent write up about it here: https://github.com/Irev-Dev/curated-code-cad/pull/8
