python library to build paragliders

OpenGlider (airG fork)

This is the airG fork of OpenGlider.

Main differences to OpenGlider:

• without the freecad gui & dependencies
• excessive use of Pydantic Models for Physical objects (ribs, cells, panels, etc)
• added a custom qt-gui with compare functionality but no editing features.
• reduced the use of numpy and use euklid for vector calculations.

Try It

Clone the git-repo first:

git clone https://github.com/airgproducts/openglider

Install with pip

cd openglider
pip install -e .

Documentation

Every module inside openglider should have a README where the functionality is documented.
Please have a look at the base module.

Unittests and Visual Tests

To run all unittests, run this from the main directory:

./testall.py

Or use -a flag to also run visual tests

./testall.py -a
