Chudware documentation
Install it or open it in the browser, build your first part, then work through modeling, assemblies, simulation, CAM, PLM, reverse engineering, and the copilot.
Build something real
The guides follow the shape of a real project: get set up, sketch and constrain geometry, assemble parts, rebuild from scans or photos, prepare CAM, and keep the project traceable.
First session? Start with the Windows, Linux, or macOS install guide, then continue to your first part.
Rebuild from source evidence
The reverse engineering guide covers photos, video, scan meshes, datasheets, and library records, with explicit scale confirmation, dimension review, approximate-result labels, deviation, and provenance.
Use the copilot as a collaborator
The copilot is a team of agents that can inspect and change the open design, but it does not replace engineering judgment. Review the feature tree, measurements, and highlighted changes before accepting the result.
