New Connector Request: FreeCAD

Features & Ideas

Hi there,
I was wondering if FreeCAD connector is somewhere on the road map for Speckle?
I’ve seen the poll on the connectors had FreeCAD listed (even voted for it :slight_smile: ), just asking if it’s somewhere on the radar. Would be good to have a another Open Software connector!

It’s definitely on our radar, although not on our short-term roadmap yet as we’re already working on a bunch of new features and connectors.
Would love to see it being developed as a community contribution though :grin:!

Thanks Mateo for the heads up! unfortunately I’m not so tech savvy to get a take on developing a connector, so likely will be looking for some workarounds until the day arrives :slight_smile:

I would also welcome a FreeCAD Connector :slight_smile:

Yes, please add a FreeCAD connector. If anyone knows about a connector program connecting between FreeCAD and Blender please also post it here. Thanks! :slight_smile:

FreeCAD are doing a great job.
But I wished they would get the same attention and help as Blender does :slight_smile:

We’d love to have a FreeCAD connector! :sparkling_heart:
Currently, our team doesn’t have the capacity to pick up new connectors, so we’d love to see it coming as a community contribution, or it could even be on official FreeCAD integration :slight_smile:

Anyone here has contacts with their dev team, or is up to the task?

Hello, I didn’t find any info if there’s support for FreeCAD. Actually I’m using Speckle with Rhino and Grasshopper, and I will love to share the geometries to and from FreeCAD.

Hey @Ettore_Lorenzi welcome to the community. - feel free to Introduce yourself :person_gesturing_ok:.

Freecad occasionally pops up as a request, and ive merged yours with a previous one.

Despite doing quite well in our polling a while ago - our hope that the many open source aec devs we hear working with Freecad could corral to work on a connector for the community hasn’t materialised.

Really happy to hear your successful with rhino + gh - Speckle team is concentrating hard on expanding and polishing our existing connectors so thanks for your bump on this perhaps it could kick start things in the community interest.
