What is CadQuery?

CadQuery is a powerful, open-source parametric CAD script framework that enables users to create customizable 3D models through concise Python code. Inspired by the simplicity and expressiveness of jQuery, CadQuery provides an intuitive, human-readable syntax for selecting and manipulating 3D geometric entities, making the process of designing complex CAD models remarkably straightforward.

Highlights

  • Intuitive, jQuery-like syntax for selecting and interacting with 3D geometric objects
  • Parametric design capabilities that allow for easy customization of models
  • Output support for a variety of high-quality CAD formats, including STEP and AMF, in addition to traditional STL
  • Non-proprietary, plain-text model format that can be edited and executed using only a web browser
