Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply and suggestion, When I was gone through your
recommend page I found this IPython integretion page[1] which got my great
attention. Here I need some clarifications according to what I have
understood,
1. As I understand, we can import FreeCAD python Api as a seperate
module[4] which can be used by IPython.
2. So here we need a '3D web viewer' to render the models which are
generated by IPython(Qtconsole/Jupyter).
3. OpenInventor API generates scenegraph which is constructing by coin3D
library in a 3D viewer. If I'm not wrong, here we can use pythonOCC with
webgl [2] [3] instead of coin3d.
Also I forked the FreeCAD repository and successfully compiled on my
machine. Seriously, those dependencies took whole day to find the ways to
install each of them :P. Now I'm analyzing the source code to get a clear
view.
