CADEditor Browser CAD

Sun, 25 Oct 2026 08:14:57 +0000

I’m part of the team behind CADEditor. We built a browser workspace for a practical task: opening a 2D CAD drawing, making a focused change, and handing back an editable file or a clean review copy.

A drawing handoff often involves two different needs. The person making the next change needs editable geometry. The person reviewing it may only need a readable vector PDF. Keeping those outputs separate helps preserve the useful drawing data.

What is available

Open DWG, DXF and DWT files in the browser.
Work with layers, geometry, text, dimensions, coordinates and snapping.
Measure distances, undo changes and use blocks.
Export editable DWG/DXF, SVG or a watermark-free vector PDF.
Use the documented API for supported automated CAD tasks.

Ordinary browser editing does not require an installation or account. Files used for ordinary local work stay on the device; optional cloud storage, sharing and API workflows require an explicit upload.

A small handoff example

Suppose a teammate asks for a mounting-hole position to move. Keep an untouched copy of the source, confirm the drawing units, isolate the relevant layer, make the change, and check the new dimension. Return the editable drawing for further work and a PDF for review. The screenshot alone should not become the only record of the change.

That workflow is a useful starting point for evaluating the editor with a non-sensitive sample drawing. Check the entities and dimensions that matter to your own files before using it for a production handoff.

Free access and boundaries

The service is free, with a 100 MB file limit and 50 browser file tasks per UTC day. Batch jobs accept up to 10 files; cloud storage is 100 MB and the API allowance is 100 calls per day. It is a 2D CAD tool rather than a 3D modeller or an AI drawing generator.

WorldLoop — Procedural CAD for Building Worlds

WorldLoop started from a simple idea: procedural generation becomes much more useful when the result is not just something you can look at, but something you can still understand, modify and build on.

It is a browser-based procedural CAD system for generating buildings and environments, currently connected directly to Roblox Studio through a plugin.

Instead of generating a static mesh or an image of a building, WorldLoop creates structured geometry from parameters. You define the world from the browser, send it to Studio, and the same system reconstructs the architecture there as usable 3D geometry.

How it works

The browser acts as the control surface.

You choose the building type, dimensions, architectural theme and structural parameters. WorldLoop then generates the building procedurally and sends the description to the Roblox Studio plugin, where the geometry is rebuilt.

The system is deterministic and rule-based rather than dependent on an AI model to invent the final geometry.

This matters because doors remain doors, windows remain openings, roofs follow the underlying structure, stairs connect actual floors, and the generated result can continue to participate in gameplay or further procedural processing.

What it can generate

WorldLoop currently includes multiple families of architecture, from compact houses to larger villas, towers, palazzi and castles.

The system includes:

multiple roof and window configurations
adaptive balconies and architectural details
multi-floor buildings and multiple entrances
towers with internal circulation
patios and upper-level solariums
several architectural themes
procedural decorations
a Bricks mode that decomposes structures into smaller building elements
export tooling for workflows outside Roblox
WorldLoop MCP lets a trusted local agent inspect your current build, use the CAD catalog and validation report, then return edits to the Console.

One of the more unusual parts is Terrain CAD.

The same architectural structure can be converted into voxel-style terrain while preserving important spatial features such as openings and passages. Instead of treating terrain as a completely separate generator, WorldLoop tries to preserve the logic of the original architecture while translating it into another representation.

That is the direction I am most interested in: one structural description, multiple physical representations.

Where it is going

WorldLoop is still growing.

The long-term goal is not simply to generate more predefined houses. I want the system to become a much broader procedural construction layer, with a large vocabulary of buildings that remain structurally editable and can be reused across different 3D pipelines.

Roblox is currently the main execution environment, but the architecture is being designed with a more general 3D workflow in mind.

I am especially interested in feedback from people working with procedural generation, CAD, Roblox tooling, level generation, 3D pipelines or unusual uses of generated environments.

If you experiment with it, break it, or have an idea for something the system should be able to construct, I would be very interested to hear about it.
