Summary
FluidCAD is a parametric CAD software that allows users to create 3D models using JavaScript code, with real-time visualization of geometry changes. The platform enables interactive, mouse-driven prototyping where users can extrude regions by dragging in the viewport, and features a non-destructive editing workflow with a complete modeling history that allows stepping through feature trees and rolling back to any point. The article demonstrates how to create basic 3D shapes using JavaScript code snippets and highlights the platform's GitHub availability and interactive capabilities.
