BRL-CAD has considerable user base spread across the globe. BRL-CAD team keep introducing new services and features for benefit of users. Moving in this direction, a recently started project "BRl-CAD Online Geometry Viewer" is an effort to facilitate BRL-CAD users to manage geometry files (.g files). Currently in development state, once launched for production use, this application would provide features such as upload, view, store, and share BRL-CAD geometry files (.g files). In addition to such features, it will also give a good online exposure to BRL-CAD project.

Feel free to include technical information about the implementation or focus on the features, interface, or ideals. This application is based on a popular open source 3D JS library called ThreeJS, for example. You're welcome to ask questions on our brlcad-devel mailing list (you can interview the author if you like). Be creative and informative.

You need to write an introductory article to explain users about this service. Post a draft of your article to our Community Publication Portal when you're done:

Sean on December 19 2013 19:20 UTCnot an article about the geometry viewer at all

Mohamed, you need to start over.  Two issues stick out badly:



  1. BLR-CAD?  There is no such thing and you consistently wrote it wrong a half dozen times...

  2. This is not an article about BRL-CAD's online geometry viewer.  You wrote an intro to our project by pulling information from wikipedia and presumably other sources.


I suggest you start by coming up with a list of questions about BRL-CAD's online geometry viewer that will help you write an article (e.g., "what is it?").  With those questions, you can better search the web for answers or better still, ask Harmanpreet or other BRL-CAD developers to get those questions answered.
