Get Cxddie on your machine

One app for every CAD system and every agent. Free for personal use.

Not sure which Mac you have? Apple menu → About This Mac → Chip.All releases

First launch on macOS

macOS can’t verify the developer yet. Right-click Cxddie in Applications and choose Open, or click Open Anyway in System Settings → Privacy & Security.

First launch on Windows

If SmartScreen says it protected your PC, click More info → Run anyway.

Updates

Cxddie tells you when a new version is out. On Windows and Linux it downloads in the background and installs when you restart; on macOS, download the new .dmg and replace the app.

What else you need

At least one agent CLI and one CAD tool. Cxddie can install both for you from inside the app: missing tools show Install, which runs Homebrew on macOS and winget on Windows, or opens the vendor’s page.

Up and running in three steps

1

Install Cxddie

Open the .dmg and drag Cxddie to Applications, run the Windows installer, or mark the AppImage executable and run it.

2

Add a project

Pick any folder — a git repo or an empty one. Cxddie initialises git and, if available, git-lfs for CAD files.

3

Start a workspace

Choose a CAD system and an agent. Missing tools show Install, which runs the official installer for you.
