CADCAMFUN CADCAMFUN

A local-first desktop app for drawing, modelling, toolpaths, and G-code. Edit geometry in the workbench. Keep projects on your desktop. Connect tools through the sidecar.

Download Build from source
local-first

Design, model, manufacture.

Bun sidecar, Effect services, SQLite on disk, Tauri around the window.

Workspace

Packages own the model. Apps own the window.

Persistence

db

Drizzle schema, migrations, and the Effect Database service. SQLite via bun:sqlite.

Domain

core

Pure CAD geometry and CAM / G-code. No database, network, or filesystem.

Contract

api

Schema-first HttpApi definitions and the domain schemas both sides share.

Assistant

ai

nikcli embedded host and AI SDK v7, as Effect services.

Plugins

plugin-sdk

Public plugin API types and the host contract.

History

vcs

Git-compatible history: objects, branches, merge, diff, and GitHub sync.

Automation

workflow

Actions-style workflow schema, triggers, and runner.

Codegen

httpapi-codegen

Generates clients from the HttpApi contract into packages/api/src/sdk and packages/api/src/client.

Bridge

@cadcamfunv2/cadcamfun-nikcli-plugin

Exposes the running app’s CAD/CAM action catalogue to a standalone nikcli. The list is read from the app; the plugin does not keep a second copy.

Server

apps/sidecar

Bun Effect server: HttpApi handlers, services, repositories, plugin host, and wiring.

Window

apps/desktop

SolidJS + Vite UI and the Tauri v2 Rust shell in src-tauri/.

Companion

apps/mobile

Expo iOS companion. Thin client of a paired desktop. Native pairing socket in modules/companion-net.

Boundaries

Imports point inward, from geometry to the window.

  1. 01

    core

    CAD geometry and G-code. No I/O.

  2. 02

    api

    HttpApi contract shared by both sides.

  3. 03

    sidecar

    Effect services, SQLite, and HTTP.

  4. 04

    desktop

    SolidJS workbench and local geometry.

Also imported by the sidecar

  • db
  • ai
  • plugin-sdk
  • vcs
  • workflow

Dependency direction has no cycles. core is imported by api, and api by the sidecar. The sidecar also imports db, ai, plugin-sdk, vcs, and workflow. The desktop imports the API client and core geometry at runtime. Mobile uses the API contract through its companion client. core and api do not import db.

Quickstart

One workspace. The desktop opens from here.

Published desktop installers are on the download page. These commands are for a source checkout: install with Bun, run the tests, then build the sidecar and open the Tauri window.
