FreeCAD PyFlow, replacement Dynamo Studio, Grasshopper and similars.

KiCAD, have integration with FreeCAD, useful for electronic design, have information for sensor, robotic, domotic, fire alarms, alarms, etc, with documentation and 3D draws for BIM

What aspects you find able / not able to do in FreeCAD / Blender ? e.g.

Design Development in progress with FreeCAD:

As for computational design, in FreeCAD you can use a Pyflow-based Node editor, which is still under development; node editor - pyflow. It's been thought to be useful in architecture for building comp

Ping @yorik - using IfcPolygonalFaceSet is much more efficient than IfcFacetedBrep, but only works in IFC4. Not sure if FreeCAD supports it yet, but if not, I highly recommend it.

I think Layout_2 might be a good example. @yorik could you just give me a bit about the software workflow. Just enough of an explanation that I can write a text in the wiki for the software that's rel

I think we're planning on modeling it mostly in BlenderBIM and possiblity FreeCAD.

Most likely this project, that we 'just' started will have documentation done in SVG from BlenderBIM or FreeCAD.... or both, if we can dial into IFC annotation translation! :)

I imagine a topologic workbench in FreeCAD that would offer the same methods as it does within Dynamo and Grasshopper. We have been able to build interesting spatial analysis workflows with it. As to

Note that freecad seems to have two ways of accessing opencascade.

WFIW, there has been a discussion in FreeCAD forum - Anyone interested in bringing Topologic to FreeCAD?

I think it would be great if some of the work in this thread could be done based on IFC from the FreeCAD model of the "Open Source House"

The big mistake Dion does is that wants to be under the umbrella of IFC (bSI) (and bSDD (IFD)) and IfcOpenShell, and some related projects like FreeCAD, this causes he and the whole community think &a

As for bSDD support in BlenderBIM or Freecad, I would love to be able to use normal building terms to identify/classify objects and have the software use bSDD to translate those terms into whatever th

now, but hopefully when it's a bit more polished FreeCAD can also use it (ping @yorik). ODS supports column widths in real world units, so you can control its formatting within LibreOffice, Excel, Ca

It is surprising that you were contacted, and not the other way around. In FreeCAD we became aware of this grant in February, About funding and all that. The way Epic describes it, the grant is very g

@brunopostle fantastic work! Agree that SWIG is needed. After this is solved, there still needs to be builds provided (in particular OSX could be a little tricky as you need Mac hardware) and only the

3) Work on interoperability with other tools in the FLOSS ecosystem for the AEC industry, as being done with FreeCAD, etc. No matter the size of the grant that eventually comes through, I think these
