About

CadQuery is an intuitive, easy-to-use python based language for building parametric 3D CAD models, functioning for 3D CAD much like jQuery does for javascript, allowing users to select faces of a 3D object similarly to selecting DOM objects. It is categorized as 3D CAD, programmatic CAD, and a scripting language, offering key features such as Parametric Modeling, Splines, and STEP support. This free and open-source tool is designed for Self-Hosted deployment, with its development actively managed on GitHub at https://github.com/CadQuery/cadquery. Users praise CadQuery for its faster and more powerful 3D operations compared to OpenSCAD, attributing this to its use of OpenCASCADE, and value its ability to integrate with all Python libraries.
