Description
CADCraft is a free and open-source application designed for computer-aided design and drafting, enabling users to produce and modify technical drawings with ease. The software features a combination of a command line interface and a visual drawing area, equipped with various tools for handling 2D geometry, managing object snaps, organizing layers, and adjusting properties, dimensions, hatches, blocks, layouts, and plotting. It supports both reading and writing in DXF and DWG formats while also allowing exports to PDF, SVG, and PNG. Users can design floor plans, create mechanical part diagrams, and other two-dimensional visuals, which they can organize into sheets using paper-space layouts and viewports. CADCraft operates as a native desktop application across Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms, in addition to offering a build compatible with WebAssembly for browser use. To facilitate advanced functions, it includes a command-line utility, a JSON control protocol, and a Model Context Protocol server that allows for scripting of drawing, inspection, and rendering tasks. As the project is continuously evolving, users can expect regular updates and new features to enhance their design experience. Overall, CADCraft provides a comprehensive toolset for both amateur and professional designers alike.
