Why put CAD software in the browser?
because that's the new hip OS
One codebase across all OSes and OS versions, no dependency issues, easy to push updates.
I'd prefer a native app myself, though.
Worse performance & accessibility, more restricted UI-Features, needs work to port... and now you need to care for mobile too.
Better pack it in Flatpack instead.
Because you can.
