PyCon India 2025

Ajinkya P. Dahale

A mechanical engineer by training, I am now a software developer based in India, currently working as a project staff at IIT Bombay, Mumbai. I have been a contributor to FreeCAD since 2016.

In FreeCAD, my focus has been mostly in the 2D constrained drawing workbench “Sketcher”, as well as the underlying solver “planegcs”. In further detail, my interest has been in adding support for general curved geometry.

Osdag is a steel structure design tool intended to comply with Indian standards, in development at IIT Bombay. In this talk I share my experience developing an installation for the same after it has been in stasis for 4-5 years.

Topics touched include changes in the python ecosystem in this time that affect this tool, conda/pixi packaging and testing.
