As someone also working on CAD in their spare time, also tried the hosted app. I get the feeling that this is made by someone who has never opened a (professional) CAD app at all. It feels like a mix between a tool like blender and CSG-style CAD, but even all of that doesn't seem to work. Maybe this is the proof that vibe coding does not work, at least not for this kind of application.

In my own project I use LLMs very sparingly and hesitantly, but made the observation that they are not very useful on the hard parts of CAD. I expect this is because of a lack of training material. Most professional CAD applications are proprietary and books on the topic are usually sparse on implementation details. The non-BRep CAD applications such as OpenSCAD and family are probably overrepresented in the training data.

This might also explain why people's experiences with LLMs are very varied. If you stay in the happy path of CRUD web development and stuff all is nice and well, but if you start to veer off this path you get more and more challenged.

Thanks for trying. What doesn't work? What did you try? If you're specific I'm happy to fix it.
