Things We Need

  • Help Wanted. We welcome Open Source Developers to join us, to improve this free drawing tool in exciting fields such as:
    • Help building LibreCAD wiki. Because LibreCAD doesn't have a user manual yet, please contribute to user wiki based on your knowledge accumulated. If you have figured out a feature in LibreCAD, please add to our wiki to help other users. Due to spam, auto-account creation is disabled.

    • Implement more command line support for actions. Currently, there are many actions there without command line support, we need to complete this part of implementation and add the relevant documents.
    • Implement a new and robust hatch generating algorithm
    • The current spline implementation is not efficient, we would like to replace it with a better spline implementation and add both spline and Bezier support as well, see Bezier
    • We have implemented new math support for hyperbola and parabola. Implementation support for hyperbola/parabola entities would make LibreCAD capable of doing all conic sections.
    • Feature tweaking and bug fixing for printing/painter
    • refactor header files to speed up the building process, support for pch headers
    • Document writers to help building wiki and user manuals
    • Artists to create icon themes and GUI layout
    • Add support for macports and Windows 8
    • Quality Assurance, bug hunting
