Layer Management

Create, lock, freeze, and manage drawing layers with color support. Control visibility and editability per layer like professional CAD tools.

DXF/DWG File Support

Open and save DXF files via the ezdxf library. Interoperable with AutoCAD, LibreCAD, and other major CAD packages.

G-Code Generation

Export your drawings directly to CNC G-code. Generate toolpaths from 2D geometry for manufacturing with built-in post-processors.
