What it recreates
Reimplements Autodesk AutoCAD-style command-line drafting, object snaps, layers, dimensions and drawing layouts in an open-source application.
What’s different
Familiar 2D CAD operations rebuilt in Rust, with DXF drawings and scriptable control.
What you can use today
v0.14.0 provides desktop installers/archives and a web build. Improves drawing recovery and save prompts, DXF text escaping and geometry/constraint handling. Early development: suitable for trying 2D drawings and PDF plotting; it is not a replacement for every AutoCAD 3D, DWG and industry plug-in workflow. Not installed or fully tested here.
