Don't feel like a noob, SketchUp's interface and controls are AMAZING (or were in 2016, which is where I am stuck because I do not want to "upgrade"). I have tried many modeling tools over the years, but always come back to using SketchUp for moderately complex designs. I haven't seen a CAD tool that does exactly what I want yet, which is to be able to define geometry either via a GUI or code (e.g. build123d), but then to easily go back and forth between the two, say adjusting some geometry output manually with my mouse by dragging it, and having the code update as well (which I acknowledge is difficult).
