CAD interchange without UI

dotnetcadnovolis

Novolis.Cad.Primitives is the interchange layer for CAD documents:

  • No Avalonia, Raylib, or UI chrome
  • String Kind entity bag (compatible with governance novolis.cad.schema.json)
  • Light dependency on Novolis.Math.Geometry for NURBS tessellation in CadVec

Novolis.Cad.Evaluation owns staged CadDocument evaluation and phys export (Avalonia-free).

Novolis.Cad.SceneBridge projects .cadjson into Novolis.ThreeD.Scene (SceneDocument / .nov3djson). Mesh scene authoring lives in novolis-avalonia (Novolis.ThreeD.Scene, Novolis.ThreeD.Import.Assimp), not in this repo.
