There are a lot of software that can help designers, architects, and engineers express their ideas in a better way. and today we are going to talk about AutoCAD and FreeCAD.
These software are both widely used to create 2D and 3D designs However, there are many differences between them. That’s what we are going to compare them and see what they do offer.
AutoCAD was introduced in December 1982 by Autodesk, as the desktop application on the computer. It allows drawing two-dimensional lines representing real elements in architecture and design, hence the term: “computer-assisted design” or CAD. Autodesk has made big efforts to upgrade this software which made it today one of the most famous design tools in this field.
In 2002, FreeCAD has emerged, it is a free and open-source software; which means anyone can freely use, study, or make changes according to their needs,Freecad is a parametric 3D computer-aided design software. It falls into the category of building information modeling, intended to be a feature-based modeler with a modular software architecture, which makes it easy to provide additional functionality without modifying the core system.
