    FreeCAD

    FreeCAD

    a parametric 3D CAD modeler

    This is an official mirror of FreeCAD. Code and release files are primarily hosted on https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD and mirrored here. FreeCAD is a general purpose feature-based, parametric 3D modeler for CAD, MCAD, CAx, CAE and PLM, aimed directly at mechanical engineering and product design but also fits a wider range of uses in engineering, such as architecture or other engineering specialties. It is 100% Open Source and extremely modular, allowing for very advanced extension and customization. FreeCAD is based on OpenCasCade, a powerful geometry kernel, features an Open Inventor-compliant 3D scene representation model provided by the Coin 3D library, and a broad Python API. The interface is built with Qt. FreeCAD runs exactly the same way on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux platforms.

    FreeCAD Link branch

    FreeCAD Link branch

    Link branch FreeCAD

    This is the Link branch FreeCAD, with lots of new features and enhancements. This branch is originally created to develop the App::Link feature for use with my Assembly3 workbench. The feature has since been merged with official FreeCAD, but the branch stayed and became the forefront of what future FreeCAD might become. Its function now is to continuously improve and test the Topological naming problem and its fix. Which I eventually plan to merge back into the FreeCAD main branch.
