Introduction
This service is a simple rectangle-cut optimizer.
It is based on Optalog's nesting technology and its NestAPI service,
which provides a straightforward REST API for nesting rectangles and
irregular shapes.
Optalog also offers a library that can be embedded in your on-premises software
or on your servers.
This demonstrator is very simple and based on the Vue.js framework
for the front-end and Python Flask for the server which is calling
NestAPI service.
If you want to develop your own web application, we can also provide you
with support and technological advice for doing so.
