LibreCAD Description

LibreCAD is an open-source CAD software available for Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms without any cost. Users benefit from extensive support and documentation provided by a thriving community made up of users, contributors, and developers. The initiative began as an effort to integrate CAM functions into the community version of QCad for a Mechmate CNC router. Due to QCad CE being built on the outdated Qt3 library, a port to Qt4 was necessary before further improvements could be made, leading to the temporary creation of CADuntu. However, after a brief period, the community concluded that the name was not suitable and engaged in discussions to find a more fitting title, resulting in the adoption of LibreCAD. The transition of the rendering engine to Qt4 was a significant undertaking, and as a result, LibreCAD initially relied on the Qt3 support library. Ultimately, this port was completed during the development of the 2.0.0 series, thanks to the efforts of our chief developer, Rallaz, marking LibreCAD's evolution towards being completely independent of Qt3, except for the 1.0.0 series. This transformation not only enhanced the software's capabilities but also solidified its position within the CAD community.
