This addon is a work in progress but currently allows for tightly nesting parts on an arbitrary sheet size and creating cam jobs based on this nested layout.

In order to appear in the index, it needs to have a few things added to the repo:

1. A manifest file: https://freecad.github.io/Addon-Academy/Topics/Structuring/Manifest/
2. A license of some kind, referenced in the Manifest
3. Dependencies declared in the manifest

You should also remove all of the *.pyc and pycaache files from your repo: I strongly suggest adding a .gitignore so these don't get accidentally re-commited again in the future.

Next, I strongly recommend using the namespaced layout for your addon documented here: https://freecad.github.io/Addon-Academy/Topics/Structuring/ -- that's not a hard blocker to inclusion in the index, but it results in your addon polluting the global namespace. And you definitely can't have a "tests" directory at root if you're going to use the bare un-namespaced layout (that will potentially break any other "import tests" in all of FreeCAD).

Updated the project to address those issues

You did miss the request that you remove *.pyc / __pycache__, and add .gitignore. There are still 68 .pyc files still tracked across 8 __pycache__ dirs, and there's still no .gitignore to prevent those from getting added again.

Sorry. Should be fixed now.
