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

CadQuery –- A Python parametric CAD scripting framework based on OCCT
See this github issue for example: https://github.com/dcowden/cadquery/issues/29
- the UI (cq-editor) is unusable for real-world work: no perspective rendering, no graduations in ortho views, no way to measure things on the object, no way to examine the BREP, etc ... Generally speaking, the UI is only a visualizer, and does not let you query / inspect the model in any detailed way.
