The problem: Multiple engineers opening the same CAD file = corrupted work, lost time, frustrated teams.
The solution: Nova automatically detects when CAD files are opened and creates smart locks with a real-time team dashboard.
What makes it different:
- Zero effort: Auto-locks files when opened, unlocks when closed
- Team visibility: Live web dashboard showing who has what open
- One command setup: nova start and you're running
- Universal: Works with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Inventor, Fusion 360 + 13 more formats
- CADLock compatible: Drop-in replacement using same network structure
Built with Python backend + Next.js frontend. MIT licensed.
Do give it a try: git clone [https://github.com/agg111/nova] && nova start → localhost:3000
i am interested in learning feedback and feature suggestions from engineering teams currently dealing with CAD workflow headaches.
