## ✨ Features

- 🗂️ **Advanced I/O:** Supports reading and writing various mesh formats (OBJ, PLY, STL, VTK, VTP, VTU) with seamless integration to PyVista and Trimesh;
- 📍 **Proximity Analysis:** Provides efficient algorithms for nearest point and nearest point on surface queries with configurable thresholds and normal-based filtering;
- 🔧 **External Tool Integration:** Wraps powerful external tools like MeshFix for mesh repair and TetWild for tetrahedral mesh generation;
- 📐 **Barycentric Utilities:** Includes functions for converting barycentric coordinates to points and sampling barycentric coordinates for simulation and analysis;
- ⌨️ **Command-Line Interface:** Offers a CLI for common tasks such as landmark annotation and mesh information display;
- 🏷️ **Type Safety:** Utilizes modern Python type hints and static analysis tools for robust and maintainable code.
