antimony VS opencascade-emscripten-port

Antimony CAD Noodle diagrams to design parts (QT UI, each box is a Python script). Example code for a scaling node.

For anyone interested in this, I would also recommend checking out the [antimony project](https://github.com/mkeeter/antimony). It's a parametric modeling program, but you can also pretty easily produce new scripts for its visual nodes.

There is an OpenCascade version compiled down to wasm [1] that we're currently using embedded in our own app. Rendering to WebGL is relatively straight-forward and the system as a whole works well. Gives me a lot of power when designing mechanical systems and running simulations on the resulting models. Perf of the CAD kernel on the web is not great, but 'just good enough'.

Troubleshooting issues is tricky though. If something doesn't work debugging is nearly impossible and the (C++) docs are very challenging.

OpenCascade is very powerful, but the ergonomics of the API aren't great. Writing a simple FP-style immutable wrapper around it has proven very fruitful and we can now describe relatively complicated models with a bare minimum of TypeScript code. Lot's of fun!
