I’m in need of a CAD program with an easy aproach for someone with zero experience on this type of software.

3D printing is not a concern

I intend to draw the blueprints for my house. The building is old, no blueprints exist for it, and I intend to make renovations to it, so having blueprints to work on to plan the renovations will be a huge help.

    The draft workbench and sketcher workbench in FreeCAD are both only for 2D projects.

      Sketcher is used as the first step for an extrusion iirc but draft is what he wants. It is just more built for 3D models to be turned into drafts rather than making a draft from scratch.

        I currently combine Draft, Bim and Sketcher to plan my house. You can also use Tech Draw and Part Design in some areas. I think FreeCAD has a steep learning curve with all the features it has, but it’s also incredibly powerful.
