1. INTRODUCTION
LEP STUDIO
LEparagliding Studio is a free, cross-platform design tool for paragliders — a modern Qt / Open CASCADE port of Pere Casellas' LEparagliding 3.28. Draw your wing with live curve editors, preview the exact 3D shape (NURBS/STEP, DXF, STL), analyse airfoils with the built-in XFLR5, test the design in the Playground's soft-body wind tunnel, and nest its flat parts in the Print/Cut tab. 0.4.1 finishes that last step: the nested layout now leaves the screen as a file you can print or cut.
Laboratori notes (august 2026):
An incredible port and interface developed by Michael! In terms of data entry, its level is basic (excepted pre-processor) and does not provide (August
2026) many advantages over manual data entry into a text file. However,
it has an amazing connector with XFLR5 and another even more amazing
connector called "playground" that leaves us speechless... we need to
study what exactly this is and how we can take advantage of it in our
designs. Pay attention, because Michael is making changes and can
provide us with even more surprises... Thanks a lot Michael!
