Hi !

BRepBuilderAPI has all the tools to create topological objects like vertices, edges, wires, shells, solids and so on. BRepPrimAPI has the tools to create primitive objects, like sphere, cone cylinder and so on. BRepTools has higher level tools to work with topological structures, exploring shapes and do modifications to them and so on.
