year is 2019

• Create a Simple Qt Ui for a CAD software (no functionalities)
• Built from sources and run
• Learnt some Tcl/Tk
• Studied a CoreInterfaces
• Studied and made modifications to RT^3 Qt project

• Completed the Checklist https://brlcad.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code/Checklist

• I am trying to understand how things are happening in BRL-CAD. Things aren't very easily understandable. So I am doing things like breaking and studying the function call stack to understand what happens underneath. I need to do this because I believe I should implement displaying of geometry first since the existing thing in RT^3 project (ray tracing) is not sufficient even for development.
• Now understand how different DMs display Vlists using OpenGL or Window system methods.
• I'm studying Vlist creation.

• Vlist obtained for a single solid in RT^3 project

• Added QOpenGLWidget to the application. Line creation is not straight-forward like in the earlier OpenGL version which existing OpenGL DMs use in BRL-CAD. glBegin and glEnd are have been deprecated and now removed in QOpenGLWidget. Studying the new method.
• Added the deprecated component QGLWidget instead of QOpenGLWidget since the later doesn't support the methods used in BRL-CAD.
• Studied OpenGL API

• Implemented displaying an object on the QGLWidget using wireframes

• Experimented with some keyboard controls to move around in the scene

• Abandoning ft_plot, need to implement Facetize.
• Obtained NonManifoldGeometrys for a db.

• Working on trying to use Facetize for DM.

• No implementations, following qt tutorials.

• Laptop broke
• I learnt some AutoCAD during the days my laptop wasn't working.

• Started a new project QtNewGUI rather than doing the QtGUI as per Daniel's suggestion.
• Started creating toolbox. (still can't work in my laptop well)

• Got laptop repaired.
• Added GraphicsViewOpenGL and placed it as the central widget.

• Opening DB, displaying geometry names in Objects list.
• Tried to configure BRL-CAD for windows (either of VS or Clion) failed.

• Geometry is displayed in QtNewGUI graphics screen now.
• Tried to configure BRL-CAD for windows (either of VS or Clion) failed.

• Saving database to a file.
• Tried to configure BRL-CAD for windows (either of VS or Clion) failed.
