AXCAD
Browser-based CAD workspace with parametric constraints, command workflows, and export pipelines.
Problem
Most lightweight web drawing tools are not suitable for precision drafting workflows because they lack command-driven editing, constraints, and production-ready export formats.
Solution
Built a TypeScript/React CAD editor with precision snapping, constraint-aware geometry operations, an AutoCAD-style command parser, and multi-format export support for engineering handoff.
Product Scope
AXCAD focuses on day-to-day drafting workflows in the browser: create/edit geometry, keep precision under control, and export into formats teammates can consume immediately.
Core Engineering Decisions
- Command-first interaction for geometry operations and power-user speed.
- Constraint and snap support to reduce precision errors during manual editing.
- Stateful history management for safe iteration and rollback.
Delivery
The tool was designed as a web-native CAD surface with practical export options so users can transition from ideation to downstream tooling without format friction.
