Ad: "FreeCAD is a 3D CAD/CAE parametric modeling application https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/About_FreeCAD. It is primarily made for mechanical design, but also serves all other uses where you need to **model 3D objects with precision and control over modeling history**" sounds promising

FreeCAD https://www.freecadweb.org/ is parametric, and this sounds good to me. We should try to model a waver structure in FreeCAD, just for the joke of it. Maybe, it performs good.

Cpp is also a valid candidate. Kicad is written in Cpp, btw. 3D graphics needs to be quickly drawing and exact.

If someone plays with the idea of writing his own tool ..
I assume, the used language/system should be
- memory safe (avoiding pointer arithmetics),
- small memory footprint (w/o garbage collector),
- sophisticated and typed,
- concurrent,
- attract developer.
Candidates are
- Rust
- Lisp / Scheme / Racket
- ML, Haskel
which does not fit all points above in one language.
Which suggestions do you have?
