We focus on the work in mesh analysis by introducing the development of a lightweight visualization and processing tool that helped expanding the aims of the group by letting the students from the University move their first steps in Computer Graphics. We show some results obtained by the group with the focus on the usefulness of a common framework of reference.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Computational Geometry and Object Modeling-Geometric algorithms, languages, and systems
