    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.

    CompassCAD

    CompassCAD

    very good CAD software

    CompassCAD is a simple, light, yet minimalist 2D-only CAD software. It lowers the barriers for novice CAD users to learn about CAD and sketch their very own design from scratch, and ensures everyone can try CAD. If applicable, it could also be used as a professional software with features such as collaboration (up to 2 persons, more will be added later on), SVG exporting, ready to be printed and shared with your co-workers. CompassCAD has a very small project size bundled in a single file, so your file is ready for distribution without breaking any of your favorite messaging app's file limit.

    grafx - Extensible Java Graphics Package

    grafx - Extensible Java Graphics Package

    Extensible Line-drawing & Polygon-filling Rasterization Libs for Java

    Line-drawing and polygon-filling rasterization algorithms in Java. Simple 2D package and more complex 3D package with Z-buffering. Texture mapping not supported at the moment. Color interpolation for lines, Gouraud shading for polygons fully supported. Floating point vertex coordinates, not integer. Pixel-level aliasing, not endpoint aliasing. Doesn't use Bresenham line style! Works with all Java versions. No external dependencies. Suitable for study in academic institutions, especially as related to line-drawing accuracy. Particular attention to detail concerning chopping of accumulation errors, using a cast from 64 bit to 32 bit strategy, in the interval [1.0,2.0). Individual pixel errors with overlapping polygons or line segments are about one in a billion, but I can't reproduce any errors at the moment by using random number generation with tens of millions of cases. Emphasis not only on correctness, but also on performance for real-world use or hardware implementation.

    igspread

    converts between IGES file and text file

    Command-line interface program that converts between IGES file and text file. IGES files are compatible with most of CAD systems. This program permits you to convert curves and points created in CAD program into coordinates in text file or you can do the opposite - convert text files into curves. It is especially suitable for curves described by hundreds of coordinates, e.g. airfoil contours of aircraft wings. Output filename is either out.txt or out.igs.
