CadCraft Studio 0.9.0 is the one desktop download for the eight CadCraft apps: CadCraft, BimCraft, ModelCraft, MarkupCraft, TakeoffCraft, CivilCraft, DetailCraft and PartCraft. It is out for Windows (installer and portable zip), macOS (.dmg), Linux (.deb and AppImage) and Android (.apk). The same apps run free in the browser at https://getcadcraft.com/use?r=09. Downloads: https://getcadcraft.com/download?r=09.

What's new

  • Print stage (3D Print add-on): put Library items on the bed in ModelCraft, BimCraft or PartCraft, arrange or fit them, and send them to a printer over USB, Klipper (Moonraker), OctoPrint or PrusaLink. CadCraft's basic slicer comes with it; Kiri:Moto, PrusaSlicer and OrcaSlicer are separate add-ons; the Bambu Lab P2S route slices with your own OrcaSlicer and opens the file in Bambu Connect. Nothing connects or sends without a click.
  • Resin printing add-ons: a resin slicer (hollowing, island check, supports and raft, layer preview, on a worker thread), Elegoo GOO, SL1, Chitubox CBDDLP and CTB 2 to 5 and Anycubic PWMX and PWS files, and a resin exposure test.
  • BimCraft wall tool and sheets: wall shapes, joins, edit by dimension, walls locked to grid lines, sheet sizes A4 to A0 in landscape or portrait, and your own title block imported from SVG.
  • CadCraft plan drafting: a hatch that stays with its boundary, layer groups as folders, stacked floors, 2D smart walls, doors and windows, text styles and an MTEXT editor.
  • Digital twin (ModelCraft, Material flow add-on): a soft PLC on the flow model, faults, rigid-body physics, layout comparison and orders from a CSV file.
  • Point clouds (CivilCraft add-on) with LAZ export; WaterCraft (CivilCraft add-on, off by default); Solid FEM (PartCraft add-on); interior lighting design and hardware design add-ons.
  • Live TeamWork: cursors and names in every app, Follow, and a class view that lists each person's tool and sheet.
  • Project document manager: a Documents panel (check-out, revisions, release states) in CadCraft, BimCraft and PartCraft.
  • Weight and temperature units in all eight apps.
  • 75 languages beyond English (language pack 2026.11.09). All of them are machine drafts until a native speaker reads them. Language packs are public at https://github.com/getcadcraft/language-packs.
  • Library: 95 items added on release day (73 residential, 22 entourage, all CC0) and four regulation packs.

Fixed

  • The language you choose now reaches every word a Studio or browser-edition page prints (New, Open, Save, Draw, About).
  • The packaged-edition file lists (Studio and browser editions) were missing modules.
  • The dialog before an add-on runs a program no longer says "to draw your picture".
  • DXF R12 export opens in AutoCAD; Plans.dwg (200,000 3D faces) and DXF files over about 70,000 entities open.
  • The CadCraft object snap menu can be reached (right-click Snap, OSNAP), Snap to grid (F9) was added, and the Object snaps list opens in every layout.
  • Render falls back to WebGL when the GPU cannot start (BimCraft, ModelCraft).
  • TakeoffCraft areas show m² on the drawing, and 1:75 and 1:150 scale presets were added.
  • Documents opens as a centered dialog.

Before you install

  • Windows is not code-signed yet (certificate validation is pending). SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC": choose More info, then Run anyway. The publisher shows as unknown.
  • macOS is signed ad hoc and is not notarized. Open the .dmg, drag CadCraft Studio to Applications, double-click it once and choose Done (not Move to Trash), then open System Settings > Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway. On macOS 13 and 14, right-click > Open may be enough. One universal image, macOS 13.3 or later.
  • Android installs from the .apk by hand and is signed with CadCraft's own release key. It is not on Google Play. Android 8 or later.
  • Check the checksum. The Studio files were replaced once on 2026-11-09 under the same version number (03:52 UTC). If you downloaded 0.9.0 earlier, compare the SHA-256 below and download again if it differs.

Known limits

  • Nothing was printed on a real printer, and no resin file was loaded on one. The print stage was tested against stand-in printers.
  • The digital twin and soft PLC were tested against simulators and known answers only: no real PLC, production line or Unreal Engine. It is not a safety validation.
  • Engineering add-ons (finite elements, wind and seismic loads, WaterCraft, process and others) are checking aids that have had no engineer review. The HVAC and Piping defaults are labelled examples.
  • Languages beyond English are machine drafts.
  • iPad and iPhone come from Apple's App Store, not from this release, and the app is not in the store yet. There is no MSIX and no public Flatpak in 0.9.
  • The in-app "What's new" help topics still describe 0.8 and 0.8.1.
  • SuperCad Studio is not public.
