A Full Live-Scripted CAD Kernel and IDE in the Browser.
Use code to create 3D Models with features ranging from simple primitives + CSG to complex revolves, sweeps, and fillets. Cascade Studio exposes the full power of the OpenCascade kernel, while providing a concise standard library for simple operations.
Save your completed models to .step, .stl. or .obj, or copy the url and share it with the community.

Contributing
Cascade Studio is entirely static assets and vanilla javascript, so running it locally is as simple as running a server from the root directory (such as the VS Code Live Server, Python live-server, or Node live-server ).
Pull Requests to this repo are automatically hosted to Vercel instances, so other users will be able to test and benefit from your modifications as soon as the PR is submitted.
