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.

Text-to-CAD: Risks and Opportunities
It seems a bizarre statement to state that OpenCASCADE isn't fully capable. Its the only OS licensed kernel that'll read a STEP file. Also "modern foundation" is a misleading statement, any CAD kernel bearing any kind of relevance seems implying a codebase that's been around for a quarter century. Like it or not OpenCASCADE is the hand that was dealt. I've worked with the technology [1] extensively and it provided the underpinnings for a startup I've founded [2]. pythonocc is the bees knees, it allows you to develop a proper CAD app. Don't take my word for it, but see also the many publications that have built on the tech [3]
