KetchUp: open-source SketchUp alternative built in Rust

Original: KetchUp – Open-source SketchUp alternative built with Rust and WebGPU

A new open-source 3D modelling project called KetchUp is drawing attention as a free alternative to SketchUp. It is built in Rust and uses WebGPU to render 3D graphics directly in the browser, and a working web version is already available to try. Tech communities are discussing its potential as a modern, cross-platform replacement for a tool long lacking an open-source rival.

Why now: Developers and 3D modelling users are interested in a free, browser-based open-source challenger to SketchUp built with modern technology.
