| Description |
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.
