Based on opencascade wasm.
Features in the docs.
Api coming soon.
No it was not, I started this before I even started using coding agents. It took many iterations and rewrites before settling on the current shape. After building the core features I started using claude to add more features, improve test coverage and generte docs.

Thanks!
> Features in the docs
The Docs section of the website has "Installation", "Editor setup", and "Your First Model".
Not a list of operations/features.
The front page lists some (extrusion, fillets), but not all.
Is the entirety of OpenCASCADE exposed to the user via the JS API, or are you only supporting a curated subset?

You are welcome.
There is a guide section and one tutorial: https://fluidcad.io/docs/guides/
This week will be all for documentation.
It is only a subset of features focused on solid modeling. Surface modeling will come in future versions
