Antimony CAD software traced to Lisp machine heritage

Original: Antimony: CAD Software Evolved from Lisp Machines and Not Drafting Tables

Developer Matt Keeter's Antimony, a parametric CAD tool built around a node-based dataflow design, is drawing attention for its unusual lineage. Commenters note it draws on Lisp machine traditions rather than copying drafting-table workflows used by mainstream CAD packages, making it a fresh take on how 3D modelling software could work.

Why now: The software takes an unconventional, programming-inspired approach to CAD that contrasts with traditional tools, sparking interest among engineers and developers.
