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.

Text-to-CAD: Risks and Opportunities
cadquery wraps OCC (OpenCascades) but used to wrap freeCAD. Here's a LEGO interlocking block brick in cadquery: https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html#lego... . Awesome-cadquery: https://github.com/CadQuery/awesome-cadquery )
cadquery and thus also jupyter-cadquery now have support for build123d.

Text-to-CAD: Risks and Opportunities
https://github.com/gumyr/build123d :
> Build123d is a python-based, parametric, boundary representation (BREP) modeling framework for 2D and 3D CAD. It's built on the Open Cascade geometric kernel and allows for the creation of complex models using a simple and intuitive python syntax. Build123d can be used to create models for 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, and other manufacturing processes. Models can be exported to a wide variety of popular CAD tools such as FreeCAD and SolidWorks.
> Build123d could be considered as an evolution of CadQuery where the somewhat restrictive Fluent API (method chaining) is replaced with stateful context managers* - e.g. with blocks - thus enabling the full python toolbox: for loops, references to objects, object sorting and filtering, etc.*

NURBS for COMPAS: https://github.com/gramaziokohler/compas_nurbs :
> This package is inspired by the NURBS-Python package, however uses a NumPy-based backend for better performance.
> Curve, and Surface are non-uniform non-rational B-Spline geometries (NUBS), RationalCurve, and RationalSurface are non-uniform rational B-Spline Geometries (NURBS). They all built upon the class BSpline. Coordinates have to be in 3D space (x, y, z)
