STEPNode

The STEP-NC API provides high-level operations to create, manipulate,
and simulate digital thread models. These operations are implemented
in C++ and wrapped with a Node Native Addon. They are also available
as a .NET API for C\# and VB use.

The API has hundreds of functions which are grouped into several objects
that provide namespace segregation and some state. API calls are mostly
plain functions and there is no object heiarchy. The API is documented
here.

The examples directory contains several examples
showing how to use the STEPNode interface to build digital thread
models from a variety of source material.

The STEPNode module is used by the digital thread server in the NC.js
Package.

The master branch of this package is published to NPM as the STEPNode
package, but BUILDING describes how to compile the
package from source.

The CONTRIBUTING file describes the technical
details for adding new node native functions to the API and the
procedure for submiting them for inclusion.
