Reopen Issue

Article Summary:
An overview of open source tools useful for architects—from 2D/3D design to visualization and documentation—all running smoothly on Fedora.

Article Description:
Architects don’t have to rely on proprietary tools. This article highlights open source software—like Blender, FreeCAD, and QGIS—that supports architectural workflows on Fedora, from design to documentation.

Hi @rlengland, @glb, here's the link:

@armanwu I saw your draft in WordPress and did a review and some pretty minor edits on it. If you have all the contents complete, then I would ask that you review it one more time, correct/add anything further, and let us know if we are ready to publish.

BTW, the featured image look very good. Thanks.

@rlengland, I’ve added several images and some links. All the images are from my personal projects. However, for the Building Information Modeling section, I used images from the FreeCAD and Blender websites. Here are the links: https://wiki.freecad.org/BIM_Workbench/en and https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/bonsai/. Could you please check if that might cause any issues?

Everything else's done. Thanks :)

Everything looks good. I don't believe there will be any issues with the images you used.

I will schedule this for 4 August (this coming Monday) 0800 UTC
