After nearly 100 releases in the 0.x.x range and a release candidate phase, Bitbybit v1.0.0 is officially here. This release brings our new CAD foundation, cloud infrastructure, and an expanded toolkit for developers.
This post outlines the major architectural changes and new capabilities available across our NPM packages, TypeScript SDK, Bitbybit Studio, and the Managed CAD Cloud.
If you've ever tried to load, edit or create a complex STEP assembly in a web browser, you know how tricky it can be. STEP is the standard format engineers use to share CAD models, but browsers don't understand it natively. You usually need desktop software or a server to convert it.
With Bitbybit v1.0.0, that changes. You can now load STEP assemblies directly in the browser, explore their structure, extract individual parts, and export to web-friendly formats. Everything runs locally using Bitbybit OCCT WebAssembly.
After nearly 100 releases in the 0.x.x range, version 1.0.0 Release Candidate 0 is now available. This is a huge milestone for Bitbybit and represents extensive engineering work to set the project on a solid foundation for years to come.
