Nice! I've been working on a remote control app for Fusion360 as well. Right now, the project is single-purpose - it generates STLs from a parametric design over a REST interface. My app also using sockets to drive Fusion remotely, but my approach to the client was different. Rather than a small static plugin that handles the messaging between Fusion and the server, I use a html client side redirect so Fusion360 downloads the plugin from the web. It's a lot heavier than your approach - the whole plugin is ~5MB minified and has to be downloaded every time the plugin is started up.

As soon as I wrap up the single-purpose app (hopefully in the next week), I'm planning on building a general remote control framework for Fusion. I'm planning on making it open-source (probably Apache).

Thanks a lot for your response. Actually I was inspired by Xiaodong Liang's Practise with Fusion 360 and Socket.IO – JavaScript API. This project really helped.

And yes - I decided to shift an accent of solution to the server side.

Good luck with your project! It's very nice.

Hi Dmytro,

Thanks for the link to the blog - I hadn't seen that post (or even the entire blog) before! So many blogs, so little time...
