ifc-impl-library-selection

IN DEVELOPMENT : subject to change. IFC5 and IFCx are not released standards. The IFCx Rust tooling named in this skill is emerging and unverified ; treat that row as a moving target. The IFC2x3, IFC4, and IFC4.3 library guidance below is stable.

This is a POINTER skill. It routes a reader to the right IFC implementation library and to the OpenAEC skill package that owns that library's detail. It does NOT teach any library API. The IFC skill package teaches the IFC standard itself : schema, entities, formats, geometry, version evolution. Library APIs, installation, and code belong to the dedicated per-library packages.

For the IFCx data format see ifc-core-ifcx-architecture. For changing a file's schema version see ifc-impl-version-migration.
