Could you build this?
No Parametric CAD software requires deep mathematical foundations in geometric constraint solving, boundary representation (B-Rep), and 3D rendering pipelines.
What it would actually take: A parametric CAD tool requires C++ or Rust with OpenGL/Vulkan/WebGPU, integrated with a boundary representation geometric modeling kernel (such as Open CASCADE or a custom kernel) and a robust 2D/3D geometric constraint solver. The hard parts are topological naming problem resolution, robust floating-point geometric intersections, and maintaining feature history DAGs without model corruption.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
