Context and Problem Statement
quadwild appears to only be a source distribution on github.
I want to make the technology more accessible.
Describe the proposed option and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation
Use github actions to automatically build quadwild for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, or diagrams
- Switch from gurobi to anything that can be redistributed and remixed.
- Automate Linux builds
- flatpak? appimage?
- Automate Windows builds
- Automate Macos builds
- Default to organic shapes for my characters usecase.
- Package all three platforms into the releases section.
Positive Consequences
- Widespread adoption
- Allows making an external addon for Blender
Negative Consequences
- Requires devops work.
Option graveyard:
- Option: Keep the current situation.
- Rejection Reason: It is difficult to build.
If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?
This not a small github action.
Is there a reason why this should be core and done by us?
Wanted to share the work with the quadwild maintainers.

dear Fire, I know we should provide also precompiled binaries. Unfortunately, Gurobi is not open source, but there are free licenses for academia. We are planning to switch to something open-source, however, so far, nothing has comparable performances Maybe we can have a look after Siggraph Deadline and see if we can switch to something we can distribute
First of all congratulations for your impressive work. I think the proposal made by @fire would be very valuable.
I arrived at quadwild because I was looking for a remeshing addon for Blender and it was mentioned here: https://github.com/jayanam/jremesh-tools/issues/2
The addon released by @jayanam could be integrating quadwild https://www.blendermarket.com/products/jremesh-tools https://github.com/jayanam/jremesh-tools https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HqngZdY1Ww
I searched for libraries that support MIQP (Mixed-integer quadratic programming), maybe they could replace gurobi.

Thanks
https://github.com/cgg-bern/quadwild-bimdf here have a solution without gurobi
I have tested quadwild-bimdf and it works.
I wonder if you could help me with the command lines when dealing with an .obj file using quadwild-bimdf-0.0.1-windows.zip ? https://github.com/cgg-bern/quadwild-bimdf/issues/14
