General question (by Pranav Ravuri)
Hi!
I am a novice programmer looking to build a hobby project. The goal is to develop an open-source 3D CAD software that operates within a web browser.
I haven't started anything, but I plan to use Solvespace (as a WASM component) as the constraint solver and Three.js as the rendering engine to display the model, with some UI elements implemented in JavaScript.
I just wanted to ask if this sounds like a decent idea? Your thoughts.
I know it's not easy, but I am thinking of starting with something simple like drawing a cube.

Good evening,
OpenSCAD has some web implementations. It could be interesting for SolveSpace to have one too though I do not know enough about it to help out with it. I did manage to find one example: http://orthogonal.cc/solvespace/solvespace.html. Perhaps it is interesting or useful for you.
Sincerely,
Ali

Solvespace is already able to run in a web browser. You can try it out here:
https://cad.apps.dgramop.xyz/
We would appreciate contributions to polish that version and make it more usable.
Desktop Solvespace can also export models to an HTML file with integrated 3js viewer. IMHO this is one of the most unusual features. Make a model, export it to HTML, view in web browser with rotate/pan/zoom.
