Выберите свою операционную систему
FreeCAD это по-настоящему мультиплатформенное приложение, разработанное с использованием всемирно известного инструментария Qt. Это значит, что FreeCAD выглядит и действует одинаково в Windows, Linux и Mac. Однако процедура установки слегка отличается в различных операционных системах. Выберите свою операционную систему ниже для уточнения способа установки FreeCAD.

Установка дополнительных элементов
Кроме стандартных верстаков, привязанных к FreeCAD, есть растущая коллекция полезных дополнительных верстаков и модулей, созданных сообществом и доступных в сети. Сейчас расширяется работа, чтобы показывать их и сделать их вам доступными удобным способом. Они перечислены ниже

Поскольку эти верстаки не являются частью официального пакета FreeCAD и не поддерживаются его командой, перед установкой Вам следует читать информацию на странице дополнения, чтобы понимать, что Вы получаете. Сообщения об ошибках и предложения по улучшению так же должны направляться на страницу дополнения.

Репозиторий дополнений FreeCAD
Это собрание полезных верстаков, используя систему субмодулей git, которая позволяет сохранять постоянно обновляемое содержание. Репозиторий дополнений FreeCAD находится по адресу https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-addons. В этом хранилище доступен макрос, который может быть вызван из FreeCAD, который может автоматически показать список, загрузить и установить любое дополнение. Для установки макроса установщика:

With older version of FreeCAD, to install the installer macro:


 * 1) Нажмите правой кнопкой мыши на addons_installer.FCMacro и выберите Save as...
 * 2) Поместите загруженный макрос в каталог Расположение пользовательских макросов. Его можно посмотреть, выбрав пункт меню Макро -> Макрос...:
 * 1) Перезагрузите FreeCAD. Дополнение теперь будет перечислено в меню Макро -> Макрос... и может быть запущен, выделив его и нажав кнопку Выполнить:

Дополнение pluginloader
Дополнение pluginloader это более сложный способ установки и управления дополнения FreeCAD. Установите его указанным выше способом или следуйте инструкциям на странице pluginloader.

Ручная установка
Внешние верстаки, если они полностью написаны на python (что верно для всех их на момент написания этого текста) всегда легко могут быть установлены просто загрузкой их (обычно кликнув кнопку *Download ZIP** сверху страницы дополнения, если он находится на github), поместив их в пользовательскую папку FreeCAD/Mod (или папку макросов, если это макрос). Смотрите полную инструкцию на соответствующей странице дополнения.

Примечания для пользователей 32-битных систем и FreeCAD 0.16.6706
После попытки установки дополнительные верстаки могут быть недоступны. В этом случае
 * удержите панель отчётов при запуске FreeCAD, и прочитайте ошибку
 * поглядите эту ветку форума: http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=12839#p102933

External software supported by FreeCAD
FreeCAD supports a whole lot of external software packages out of the box. This means, you just need to install the software and it will be automatically available, the next time you start it. There's no need to recompile it. This section aims to provide a list of all such software packages, together with some information of where it's used in FreeCAD and where you can grab them.

CAD Exchanger
A proprietary, closed source application for exchanging various file formats used in CAD. You can use it to convert proprietary, closed formats into a format which is accessible by FreeCAD. The homepage is at https://cadexchanger.com/ where you can download an evaluation version or purchase a license for the application.

CalculiX
CalculiX is a suite of two finite element packages. One, CalculiX GraphiX, or calculix-cgx, is a GUI frontend to display the results of the second package, CalculiX CrunchiX, or calculix-ccx, a FEM solver. Only the latter one is supported by FreeCAD. It can be accessed from the FEM Workbench through. There's a standard and experimental solver supported by FreeCAD. CalculiX can be downloaded from http://calculix.de

DXF Importer
FreeCAD has a native importer and exporter for DXF files, programmed in C++. Currently this importer does not implement all features of the DXF format. If you rely on a not yet implemented feature, you enable an older python based importer/exporter through by activating the  option. You can then choose to let FreeCAD automatically download the needed files or you can grab them from https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/Draft-dxf-importer. The chosen importer / exporter is used by selecting or  and choosing the  file format.

Elmer
Elmer is a multiphysical simulation software, which was open sourced in 2005. In FreeCAD its Grid and Solver modules can be used by the FEM workbench through. The projects homepage is at https://www.elmerfem.org and it can be downloaded from GitHub at https://github.com/ElmerCSC/elmerfem/releases.

FEniCS
FEniCS is a computing platform to solve partial differential equations (PDEs), which are widely used when solving FEM problems. As such it can be used by the FEM workbench. FreeCAD can import and export FEniCS meshes through and  by selecting the  file format. The homepage of FEniCS is at https://fenicsproject.org.

GitPython
A python library which is used to interact with Git repositories. The feature is currently in development status in FreeCAD. The Addon Manager can use this library to import addons from a Git repository. The project is hosted on GitHub at https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython.

Gmsh
A 3D automatic finite element mesh generator. It can be used in FreeCAD from the FEM workbench through. The homepage of gmsh is at http://www.geuz.org/gmsh

GraphViz
GraphViz is an open source graph visualization software. In FreeCAD it is used to generate dependency graphs through Its homepage is at https://www.graphviz.org
