It is 100% javascript parametric sketcher based 3d modeler running in web browser.

Found this the other day. The demo link in the git hub is out of date so best bet is to build your own but this is pretty slick.

Those are UNIX/Linux commands, cozmicray. They won't work on Windows.

I'm not even sure that thing will run on Windows. I'm guessing you'd need to install Node.js first. [nodejs.org]

After that, sorry can't be of help.

Linux, Python others run under windows

It is a Javascript based app.
If a browser on a Windows machine can't run javascript it is useless.

If one goes to
[web-cad.org]
it runs in Chrome browser

but storage is NOT local

If one watches the youtube video it is running on windows.

I am currently running windows and have been using laragon as my web server.

If you download laragon and use the termi al program supplied with it all should work for getting your local system working.

Also the model is stored localy in the browsers local storage. No data is interchanged with the cloud.

There is a way to do a build on this project that makes it so it will work with out node.js after the initial build. At that point any web server could be used to host it.

Currently the web-cad.org web site lags behind the development version in the master branch on git hub.
