Just a one minutes test:

    * Mouse over text takes too long, it should be visible instant. When I'm searching for a tool I don't want to wait 500ms for each symbol
    * Even empty it feels more laggy then onshape on same device / browser.
    * When I did a boolean operation there is no popup or similar where I can choose the tool and target. It's all based on selection order? How do I choose 2 tools and one target, or the other way around.

And it's all based on a single 16 000 large c++ file? https://github.com/Nx-Nass/NassCAD/blob/main/MEDUSA_SOURCE/n...

wut? That whole repo seems a mess.

I'm not sure if it's crashed or just very slow, but I've been waiting several minutes to preview a fillet on a cylinder end.

Which modeling kernel does it use?

  Changelog notes seem to hint at MEDUSA, though I've never heard of that particular one. Definitely going to give it a try, always up for more browser based CAD options!

    It's one big as single file https://github.com/Nx-Nass/NassCAD/blob/main/MEDUSA_SOURCE/n...

  From their Github, it looks like OpenCascade with Manifold for mesh boolean that they are calling MEDUSA.

  The Release page has:
  >Download the Source code ZIP below and extract it. It includes the application, its libraries and the OpenCASCADE WASM/data files.

At first glance, this looks really impressive.
