for everyone

write CAD models in Javascript

A boy (Ralph Wiggum from The Simpsons) sitting at a table begins to sob and lowering his head to rest in his arms, in doing so turns a dial that turns off a green light and turns on a red light

I mean good for anyone who's into this - for me, I'll stick with openscad though ( https://openscad.org/ ).

Same thing but with a dedicated language dedicated to 3D modeling, algebraic approach to shapes and a long history and track record.

Does it have fillet and other such tools? I vaguely remember it doesn't, but it is years since I've used it.

Yeah, there are modules at least for fillets! But I'm really a non visual person who just wants functional stuff, I'm not knowledgeable enough when it comes to any special features.

For example I have no idea what "such tools" entails :D

Chamfers, for a start.

I concur about this software. It's pretty darn nice.

Here's a plugin for Blender that works like Grasshopper for Rhinoceros3D: sverchok (which is Russian for grasshopper).

I'd rather avoid algorithmic modeling in JavaScript or in a browser.
