Best module for generate sketch
I was thinking about cadQuery or DrawSVG. But maybe you have a better idea ? I'm beginner in python (started on november ...)

Synth Printer: 3D printed synth panels with simple Python code. Give me early feedback?
Last few months, I've made over 20 3D printed panels using the CadQuery Python library. Its syntax is pretty complex, so every time I wanted to make a panel, I'd just copy-paste bits and pieces from my previous panels. In the process, I learned what work and what doesn't, and I thought it was time to polish up this system to share it with others.

This subreddit now says that the Steam Deck is just a PC right when you join it. Now all of you who say that it isn't a PC can stop arguing about it
Spicy! I'm also a solidworks user but I've been playing around with cadquery recently, that installed and performs pretty nicely on Linux for me. Haven't really pushed it though.

Pipeline to automate the process from creating 3d objects to start a print job
I am currently developing a pipeline for creating STL files, slice them and create a print job based on it. My setup at the moment is an Ultimaker S5, which offers a simple REST-API, for example starting a job with a G-Code or UFP file. I am using the cadQuery library for creating parametrized 3d shapes and export them as a STL file. I want to use the CuraEngine CLI interface (Backend for Cura) for slicing or their library libArcus (python bindings) but there is literally no documentation or any kind of examples, except the source code. There is also the prucaSlicer, which also offers a CLI interface for creating G-Code, but no support for the Ultimaker S5.

Any recommendations for a simple solid modeling API library? Preferably C or C++
Not C but maybe cadquery? https://cadquery.readthedocs.io

What is the end purpose of your OpenBSD system?
CadQuery would be a closer alternative to OpenSCAD. Not sure if it’s available on OpenBSD.

How do I use/install packages in CQ-Editor?
I have a need to use the thread module from https://github.com/gumyr/cq_warehouse, and I'm sure I'll use https://github.com/meadiode/cq_gears as well. I just downloaded CadQuery 2 for Windows, and I can't figure out where I need to download these repos so I can call them in the script.

Morphing crossed helical gears
My generator is here: https://github.com/meadiode/cq_gears It's built on top of 3d-CAD modelling library called CadQuery and as I mentioned earlier it's not specifically intended to be used with Blender, more like for general CAD needs.

CadQuery –- A Python parametric CAD scripting framework based on OCCT
One thing that kept me using OpenSCAD was the section of additional modules for it, including a decent involute gear creator. For those of you diving into CadQuery, here’s the equivalent: https://github.com/meadiode/cq_gears
What are some alternatives?
