OpenJSCAD.org
JSCAD is an open source set of modular, browser and command line tools for creating parametric 2D and 3D designs with JavaScript code. It provides a quick, precise and reproducible method for generating 3D models, and is especially useful for 3D printing applications. (by jscad)

A blocky based CAD program
its uses https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org library to create the 3d model
- Is there some way to implement a web-based customizer?

Procedural CAD Modelling tools for WebGL
then there are 2 others, sop/CSGboolean and sop/CADboolean. CSGBoolean is indeed based on CSG, and uses jscad. And the CAD one (which I show in the video in this post) is based on opencascade, which is the most powerful/stable. Then the output of both of those nodes is converted to threejs in order to be displayed in webgl.

Is there a way to share a network drive or a folder over the internet?
That being said, https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org sounds like a winner for your requirement of NOT having to download a file across the internet.

Show HN: Replicad, the Library for CAD in the Browser
this looks very nice. i think i like the ergonomics of your library... the "sketch on a plane then extrude" workflow feels nice and familiar.
could you compare and contrast replicad to JSCAD (https://openjscad.xyz)?
the examples in your docs are quite sluggish to load in Safari, but the workbench is very snappy!

10 ways to get the best out of OpenSCAD
No one has mentioned OpenJSCAD, which is the same idea in Javascript: http://openjscad.azurewebsites.net/
https://github.com/jscad/OpenJSCAD.org/tree/V2
A fairly substantial rewrite is underway, the V2 branch linked above.
-
Code CAD – Use code to create CAD models
- Browserify to bundle the design into a website. Directly from the source CAD files, without rendering to a huge mesh file format.
It's cool because you get access to the whole javascript ecosystem, and it's native to the browser.

- Support for Javascript?

- Can you add male or female bolt threads in Prusa Slicer?
- I'm sure many around here already know about this gear generation library, but for those who don't, I'm sharing it here,
-
I just want to show you my parametric gear that I just finished. Since the code is a mess, I can't share it completely, but I'll improve it soon so you can use it easily.(sorry for my english)
I belive something like this?

Bosl1 or 2
Ah, never mind. I found it: https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL

- Help with a threads module. I don't know where to start to add in the specs I want.

OpenSCAD help needed
OpenSCAD provides the primitives for constructive geometry. Anything beyond that requires libraries. BOSL is quite popular (although I use BOSL rather than BOSL2 because BOSL2 is not finalized). https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL
- N-order Bezier curve function (Did I do this right?)

What is the best 3D modeling program to learn?
If you have any programming experience then OpenSCAD might be worth a look. Up until very recently I have used it exclusively for the past few years. It takes a bit to build yourself up a personal library of common shapes but once you do you can code up a design pretty quickly. And if you use any type of good programming experience your designs are parametric by default. There are also existing libraries out there that can help out quite a bit (e.g. https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL and https://github.com/JustinSDK/dotSCAD)

This how far I've gotten after 10 days through learning curve and iterative cycle of OpenSCAD > Cura Slicing > 3D Printing > Tweaking > Repeating...
Back to topic, you might find Round Anything to be useful -- I certainly have. I haven't used it yet, but the shell2d() out of the Belfry OpenScad Library also looks like it would be helpful for these sort of functional parts.
