MST Mechanical Design Tools is a collection of free web-based utilities for mechanical engineers, covering BOM comparison, P&ID tag checking, drawing-to-BOM extraction, and related document reconciliation tasks. The tools are practical, have worked examples, and are open source under MIT, but they largely automate routine CSV/image comparison rather than introducing novel algorithms or paradigms.
Target audience: mechanical engineers, manufacturing engineers, CAD/BOM managers
Repository: https://mst-us.ai/tools/ · TypeScript · MIT
