About LibreCAD

LibreCAD is a community-run, open-source application for two-dimensional computer-aided drafting. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, is licensed under the GPLv2, and draws its help and documentation from users, contributors and developers rather than a vendor.

What LibreCAD offers

  • 2D drafting — a mature desktop program for technical drawing with a broad feature set.
  • Wide language support — the interface is translated into more than 30 languages.
  • Several install routes — DMG packages for macOS, EXE installers for Windows, Linux distribution packages and AppImage builds, plus source code on GitHub.
  • Community help — a forum, wiki, manual and IRC channel.

Who it works with

Anyone who needs 2D CAD, from hobbyists to technical drafters. The small core team invites coders, testers, writers and translators to join, and is currently looking for help with macOS deployment.

Key facts

  • Origins: began as an effort to add CAM features to the QCad community edition for a Mechmate CNC router, then was briefly called CADuntu before taking its current name
  • Licence: GPLv2
  • Platforms: Windows, macOS and Linux
  • Framework: the 2.2 series requires Qt5
