I test and write about open-source CAD software. Are you building a CAD program,
an app, a plugin or a tool that belongs on this site? Send me a link and I will 
take a serious look at it.

## What I look at

Mechanical design mostly: sketching, parametric modelling, assemblies, technical
drawings and getting a model ready for production. Also the parts underneath that,
such as the geometric kernel, file exchange (STEP, IGES, DXF) and scripting or an
API. AI-assisted design is fair game too. BIM and electronics are on this site for
reference, but they are not my main testing ground.

## What you get

 * I download and install it myself and try it on real parts, not on a demo walkthrough.
 * An honest review on opensourcecad.nl, including the things that do not work yet.
 * If you want, you get the draft before it goes live.

What I cannot promise is coverage. I write about a tool when I think it is worth
a reader’s time, and I decide when that is.

## What I need from you

 * A link: the repository, a download page or a live demo
 * Two lines about what it is and who it is for
 * Where it stands: prototype, beta or released
 * Licence and platform (Windows, Linux, macOS, web)
 * If you have one: a sample model or a task that shows what it can do
 * Anything you would rather not see published — tell me upfront

## How it works

This is not a paid placement and there is no fee for a review. My verdict stays 
mine: if something is not good enough yet, I say so and explain why. And if I cannot
test it properly — because it is closed off, not installable, or simply not my area—
I will tell you that instead of writing something thin.
