Why not ! Still, if you can't beat them, join them

If I had wanted that, I would have studied hard to learn how to use them and wouldn’t be struggling to make plugins.
There’s also MeshLab or FreeCAD, which do similar things.
To me, all these programs seem very complicated and require a lot of practice.
That doesn’t mean my plugin is much simpler, especially since it will likely become much more complicated in the future.

AOI has a GNU license and done in java, so you could examine its generation tools (e.g. lathe, extrude ... etc) for reference

I drew a lot of inspiration from AOI for some of my own plugins (Multiplier, DistributeElevation). As for the source code, it wasn’t much help to me since I couldn’t make sense of it.
Nevertheless, it remains a great source of inspiration.
For example, Outset/Inset was inspired by AOI.
