Open-source C++ 2D nesting library.

Also called: libnest2d · lib nest 2d

Last verified: 2026-05-27

An open-source C++11 library for 2D nesting of arbitrary polygons (LGPL-3.0). Inspired by SVGnest, it uses No-Fit Polygon-based placement, with a default backend on Clipper, NLopt, and Boost.Geometry. It powers PrusaSlicer's part-arrangement feature and works especially well for rectangles and convex polygons. Connected as an open-source implementation of 2D Irregular Nesting (grade C — specific performance claims are [unverified]).
