This package aims to present FreeCAD in a more modern and user-friendly look. These visual changes are made to make FreeCAD look like commercial CAD software such as Dassault Solidworks, Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Fusion 360, Creo PTC, SolidEdge, Siemens nx and others.
This is my personal FreeCAD branch. Do not complain to upstream about issues with this snap! See also the more official snap package: freecad
Freedom to build what you want. FreeCAD is an open-source parametric 3D modeler made primarily to design real-life objects of any size. Parametric modeling allows you to easily modify your design by going back into your model history to change its parameters.
Create 3D from 2D and back FreeCAD lets you to sketch geometry constrained 2D shapes and use them as a base to build other objects. It contains many components to adjust dimensions or extract design details from 3D models to create high quality production-ready drawings.
Designed for your needs FreeCAD is designed to fit a wide range of uses including product design, mechanical engineering and architecture, whether you are a hobbyist, programmer, experienced CAD user, student or teacher.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
If you’re running Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) and Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.
Versions of Kubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) don’t include snap by default, but snap can be installed from the command line as follows:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
To install FreeCAD Mechanical, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install freecad-mechanical
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
