ARES Kudo Developer Studio is a version of ARES Kudo exclusively aiming at developers of cloud-based solutions.
It can be installed on the computer of the developer locally, to test and develop your code offline before deploying it online on your server.

What can I achieve with the ARES Kudo CAD platform for Developers

...

Use the 300+ 2D CAD features available in ARES Kudo to migrate an existing solution from desktop to cloud, build a new online CAD solution with your own industry-specific features on top ,or integrate some or all of these CAD features inside your pre-existing online solutions.

ARES Kudo is using the DWG format natively which ensures a maximum compatibility with AutoCAD. Compared to the version distributed by Graebert, developers can modify the user interface, show/hide features and integrate our technology into a product distributed under their own brand.

Some use cases include:

• Embed DWG viewing and editing into your application

• Use CAD features alongside your application to enable your users to view and edit DWG files

• Rebrand the Kudo CAD Editor with your custom icons and commandsExchange data between CAD and add your own industry-specific commands

• Extract data from DWG files (for example for quantity takeoffs) or update DWG drawings with data from your application

• Automate Automate processes on CAD files

...

• , for example PDF or DGN Import/Export, compare drawings and highlight differences in colors,  export drawing data to Excel... etc.

System Requirements

Minimum Memory Requirement for the Server

To ensure optimal performance and the ability to open drawings, your server should have a minimum of 3GB of memory available.
Having less than 3GB of memory may result in inadequate resources for the server to handle drawing operations efficiently, potentially leading to must have at least 3 GB of available memory.
Insufficient memory—less than 3 GB—can lead to resource constraints, causing performance issues or failure to open drawings.
It 's is strongly recommended to allocate at least 3GB 3 GB of memory to the server to ensure smooth operation and guarantee smooth operations and provide sufficient resources for handling drawing-related tasks effectively.
