Hi Christian,

Thank you for your interest in the pythonOCC project. The 'howto start
question' is recurrent. Before you start enjoying pythonOCC programming,
there are 2 prerequisites:
- basic python knowledge,
- OpenCascade library basics. I suggest you start by browsing the OCC
documentation/forum to get familiar with the OCC kernel.
After that, you can read the samples provided with the latest release of
pythonOCC, and copy/paste/modify parts of code to make your first steps.

I have to warm you that this library is not really intended to
CAD/development beginners : geometry is generated from a python console, 3D
being currently only supported for visualization (there's no 'interactive'
GUI as you can find in other CAD softwares). pythonOCC does not aim at
replacing such tools, actually very good for most of them, whether they are
commercial or free/open source (like freecad or heekscad). pythonOCC
adresses the 'what you can't do with your favorite cad software' issue. It's
then suitable for very specific needs and intented to developers (it can be
considered basically as a development library) or engineers who feel
frustrated with the limitations of their usual cad software. But of course
you're welcome to check it out and ask any question that could help you!

Best Regards,

Thomas
