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.

OpenSCAD Survey - what programming language do you want to be added to app?

cadCAD alternative for Go?
Object Oriented Programming is a way to go to create CAD tool for school project, not golang (too hard for school task). If you really must, this was I want to try in one of my projects: https://github.com/deadsy/sdfx

3D Printed fightstick
Designed all of these parts* using Deadsy/SDFX, it was certainly interesting and I enjoyed working with it, getting visual artifacts off my model and keeping file sizes down is a bit tedious though.

SolveSpace – parametric 2d/3D CAD
I wrote this (in golang) to satisfy my need to generate STLs for 3d printing.
https://github.com/deadsy/sdfx
In general I like to write code to define objects, but there are some situations where a graphical editing UI would be nice. ie- Curve and polygon design.
You can sort of imagine a hybrid approach where you could crack open a mini editor to design a curve and then use it to generate code (table of numbers) which you could then extrude/sweep/loft or whatever.

Curated Code CAD
Nice to see sdfx [1] there, this project is impressive.
deadsy built some rather sophisticated models, be sure to check out the renderings in the github README!

What free CAD software should I use for precise designs for a 3d-printer?
I had a similar question, and this is how I answered it (after a visit to openscad,,,) https://github.com/deadsy/sdfx

FreeCAD User Book (2019)
I used to like OpenSCAD for its simple approach but then I discovered SDF-based modelling with Python made possible with this neat library: [1]. This is perfect if you are a programmer that doesn't know anything about CAD-Software.

CAD Sketcher, free and open-source project bringing CAD like tools to Blender3d
>these the the central core that understands BREP and implements the geometric operations.
I've seen people quote a good modern CAD kernal as a 100 man year project. It's probably not going to happen, maybe there's some avenue for government funding?
Alternatively Signed-Distance-Functions are pretty nice. They're not BREP, but they're a lot easier to implement, and it might be possible to shove them into a BREP-shaped hole.
Here's a signed-distance-function based CAD kernal written in a few thousand lines of python+numpy, that seems to be about as fast as openscad. Maybe faster. https://github.com/fogleman/sdf

Signed distance functions in 46 lines of Python
Excellent. You might be interested in a Python library that I wrote for generating 3D meshes (STL files) from SDFs : https://github.com/fogleman/sdf
It just uses marching cubes for triangulation but the SDFs are all numpy'd and the SDF is evaluated in batches on multiple threads so it's relatively fast.

Plot of triangle mesh with py5
I used the SDF repo by Michael Fogleman. Check out his website, there's a ton of useful stuff on there. He contributes a lot to the open source community and has been mentioned in r/PlotterArt before.

10 ways to get the best out of OpenSCAD
Try out fogleman/sdf[1]. It is like OpenSCAD in many ways but the distance field model gives you offsets and fillets more easily.

Holy crap, why have I not seen this before?!?!!? I was even planning to start coding something like this myself. This is awesome!
