Download CadCraft Studio

All eight apps in one install for Android. These are early builds.

Android will ask you to allow the install: how to do it

  1. The Android app installs from this page, not from Google Play yet

    CadCraft Studio comes to Google Play in a later release. Until then you install the .apk yourself, and Android asks you to allow it once:

    • Download the .apk on your phone or tablet and open it. Android asks to let your browser (or your Files app) install unknown apps: allow it for that app only, go back, and choose Install.
    • Google Play Protect may say it does not know this app. Choose More details, then Install anyway.
    • The app is signed with CadCraft's own key, so a later version from this page installs over it and keeps your files.
    • Check the SHA-256 first, and install the file only if it matches the value on this page or in SHA256SUMS: on a computer, sha256sum CadCraft-Studio-0.9.0.apk
    • Phones and tablets with Android 8 or later and an up-to-date Android System WebView. Automatic updates are off: new versions come from this page.

  2. The translations are machine-made drafts

    Every app offers 73 languages besides English in Settings, under Language. The translations are machine-made and not yet reviewed by native speakers, so some wording might be off. Anything not translated stays in English, and so does most of the help: only the getting-started topics are translated.

    Spotted a bad translation? Tell us on the support form.

Notices for other platforms (Windows, macOS)

  1. The Windows installer is not code-signed yet

    Code signing comes in a later release. Until then:

    • When the installer starts, Windows SmartScreen shows “Windows protected your PC”. Choose More info, then Run anyway. Some antivirus programs may also warn about an unsigned installer.
    • The publisher shows as unknown, not as CadCraft.
    • Check the SHA-256 first, and run the file only if it matches the value on this page or in SHA256SUMS.
      Windows
      certutil -hashfile CadCraft-Studio-0.9.0-setup.exe SHA256
      Linux
      sha256sum CadCraft-Studio-0.9.0-amd64.deb
    • CadCraft Studio installs for your user only, with no administrator rights. Once installed, it checks this site for new versions and offers to install them; each update's signature is checked before it is installed.

  2. The macOS disk image is not signed or notarized yet

    Apple's signing and notarization come in a later release. Until then macOS will not open CadCraft Studio with a double-click the first time, because it cannot check who made it:

    • Open the .dmg and drag CadCraft Studio to Applications.
    • Double-click CadCraft Studio in Applications once. macOS says it can't check the app: choose Done, not Move to Trash.
    • Open System Settings, then Privacy & Security. Near the bottom, under Security, find the notice that CadCraft Studio was blocked and choose Open Anyway. A dialog pops up: choose Open Anyway again, then approve it with Touch ID or your password. After that it opens like any app.
    • On older versions of macOS (13 and 14) it may be enough to right-click (or Control-click) the app and choose Open, then Open again.
    • Check the SHA-256 first, and open the file only if it matches the value on this page or in SHA256SUMS: shasum -a 256 CadCraft-Studio-0.9.0.dmg
    • One disk image for Apple silicon and Intel Macs, macOS 13.3 or later. Automatic updates are off: new versions come from this page.

  3. The portable zip keeps everything beside the program, and never replaces itself

    Unpack the zip into any folder and run CadCraft Studio.exe. Nothing is installed. It is the same Studio, with these differences:

    • Your settings, recent files, recovery copies and window places are kept in a data folder beside the program, not in Windows' user profile. Copy the whole folder to take them with you; delete it to remove everything.
    • It never replaces itself. Settings, Updates in Studio can tell you when a newer zip is out; to update, download the newest zip and move your data folder into the new one. The web engine inside is Microsoft's, and a newer zip brings a newer one.
    • It is not code-signed either: the same SmartScreen steps as the installer apply, and Windows may also mark the unpacked files as downloaded. Check the SHA-256 first (also in SHA256SUMS): certutil -hashfile CadCraft-Studio-0.9.0-portable.zip SHA256
    • If you sign in to your account, the sign-in is kept in this PC's Windows credential store, not in the data folder. Use Sign out before you leave a computer that is not yours.

  4. Studio for Windows brings its own web engine

    The apps draw their windows with Microsoft Edge WebView2. So that the installer never stops to download it, CadCraft Studio for Windows carries its own copy (the WebView2 Fixed Version runtime), which is most of its size. That copy is Microsoft's software, shipped unchanged under Microsoft's terms, not under Apache-2.0; its credits are in the webview2 folder of the install.

    That copy does not update on its own: security fixes to the web engine arrive with each new version of CadCraft Studio, which Studio offers to install when it is out.

All eight apps in one install, with one home screen to open them from. It is not another app: it is the same eight apps, together. To host one app's browser edition yourself, get it from GitHub.

Other platforms
PlatformToday
iPad Coming soon. CadCraft Studio for iPad goes out through Apple, in the App Store. It never installs from this page; the link appears here as soon as it is live. iPhone comes later. Apple's rules let this app carry only the add-ons CadCraft makes, so it does not offer add-ons from outside makers or paid add-ons. The CadCraft web app on the same iPad has the whole Add-on Library.
System requirements
PlatformSystemNeedsInstallTested
Windows Windows 10 or Windows 11, 64-bit (x64) Nothing else: CadCraft Studio brings its own copy of the web engine (Microsoft Edge WebView2), so the installer never downloads anything. About 750 MB of disk for every app together Installs for your user only, with no administrator rights. Studio checks this site for new versions and offers to install them. Built on our build machine; the installer was checked by hand on Windows before the release.
macOS macOS 13.3 Ventura or later, on Apple silicon or Intel (one universal disk image) Nothing else: CadCraft Studio uses the web engine built into macOS, and the apps need the one from macOS 13.3 (Safari 16.4) Open the .dmg and drag CadCraft Studio to Applications. It is not signed or notarized yet: Gatekeeper will stop it the first time. Double-click the app once and choose Done (not Move to Trash), then go to System Settings, Privacy & Security, find the CadCraft notice and choose Open Anyway. Choose Open Anyway again in the dialog and approve with Touch ID or your password. On older versions of macOS (13 and 14), right-clicking the app and choosing Open may be enough. Automatic updates are off. Built on our Mac as one universal disk image. Not yet checked on a clean Mac or on an Intel Mac.
Linux 64-bit x86 (x86_64) Linux .deb: a Debian-based system with WebKitGTK 4.1 (libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0), such as Ubuntu 22.04 or newer. AppImage: carries its own WebKitGTK .deb: sudo apt install ./<file>.deb. AppImage: make it executable, then run it. Both check this site for new versions and offer to install them. Built on Ubuntu 22.04; the .deb installed, started with a file and removed again there. PartCraft runs single-threaded on Linux.
Android Android 8 or later, phones and tablets (64-bit and 32-bit Arm, x86-64) Android System WebView 105 or later (kept up to date by Google Play on most devices) Open the .apk on the device and allow your browser to install unknown apps. Automatic updates are off: a new version is a new .apk from this page, installed over the old one. An earlier test build was checked by hand on an Android phone; this release build was built and signed on our build machine.
Browser A current Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari (apps with a web build); the oldest that starts them is Chrome or Edge 94, Firefox 93 or Safari 16.4 WebGPU or WebGL 2 Nothing to install: use it in the browser, or host a browser edition yourself. Tested in Chromium with every release.

Memory: 8 GB (target for every app). That is a design target, not a measurement: the 0.9.0 builds have not been measured against it yet. Recommended: 16 GB for large federated models in BimCraft, CivilCraft and DetailCraft.

    Get CadCraft Studio

  • In your browser

    Every app runs at getcadcraft.com/use with nothing to install. Bug fixes reach the browser apps first, so they can be a little newer than the download.

    Use it now

  • Updates inside Studio

    Studio from the Windows installer, the AppImage and the Linux .deb checks this site for a newer version and offers to install it, after checking the update's signature. The Windows portable zip tells you when a newer zip is out.

  • Homebrew

    Install CadCraft Studio on a Mac from the command line with a Homebrew cask from our own tap. The same disk image as this page, and it is not notarized yet.

    brew install --cask getcadcraft/tap/cadcraft-studio

    The tap on GitHub

  • Flatpak

    CadCraft Studio as a Flatpak for any Linux distribution, from our own signed repository, updated by your software center.

    flatpak install cadcraft com.getcadcraft.studio

    Add the repository

Upcoming and planned streams

Where we plan to release next. No dates: each one opens when it is really there.

  • Microsoft Store Pending

    CadCraft Studio as a signed Windows package that the Store installs and keeps up to date, with no SmartScreen warning.

  • winget Pending

    Install and update Studio from the Windows command line. Once Studio is in the Microsoft Store, winget finds it there; a listing of the website installer in the community winget repository follows once that installer is code-signed.

    winget install CadCraft.Studio (not available yet)

  • Signed Windows package from this page Pending

    The same package as the Store's, from this page, installed by Windows' App Installer and updated by it. It is published only once it carries a real code signature.

  • Apple App Store Pending

    CadCraft Studio for iPad from the App Store; iPhone later. A signed and notarized Mac app follows code signing.

  • Google Play Planned

    CadCraft Studio for Android phones and tablets from Google Play, updated by Play, instead of the .apk from this page.
