What is AutoCAD and what is it for?
An introduction to AutoCAD for architecture and engineering

While AutoCAD may not be the pioneer of Computer Aided Design programs, it is certainly the most recognized by far, to the point where it has become the undisputed reference, alongside other programs from its own company, Autodesk, for architecture and engineering.
THE REFERENCE SOFTWARE FOR ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING

If we were to define what AutoCAD is in a few words, we would say that it is a CAD software oriented towards 2D and 3D drawing and modeling. It allows the creation and modification of geometric models with an almost infinite capacity to develop all types of structures and objects.

This ability to work in different fields has made AutoCAD surpass its traditional use in the world of architecture and engineering, to enter the world of graphics and interior design.

Currently, AutoCAD has a multitude of specialized auxiliary tools covering all types of industrial fields related to 2D design and 3D modeling.

It was in 1982 when a group of programmers, led by John Walker, developed the first version of AutoCAD, the software that Michael Riddle, another member of that team, had previously created.

In a time when computers and software were still in their early stages, the popularity of AutoCAD has steadily grown the company to this day.

During those years, Autodesk saw the departure of John Walker and the arrival of Carol Bartz, who led the company to increase its success and the penetration of AutoCAD in the market became indisputable.

Currently, Autodesk offers a large number of software tools focused on design, modeling, rendering, and applications.
AutoCAD today

Currently, AutoCAD is refining its features for 2D and 3D design, interaction with the cloud, and compatibility with other programs, expanding its functionalities.

For example:
