    Though OpenSCAD is text based, the methodology of CSG operations as a basis for making shapes is identical. This is a good alternative for programmers who like tinkercad but want more precision.

    Very easy to use and powerful. You can design complex models with ease. In built Slicer of SelfCAD is also amazing and recently they added 3D printing animation functionality.

    A very promising alternative to tinkercad for those who don’t have a good connection and need an offline alternative. There is still some bugs and necessary improvements but the developers team is very active. There are still some bugs and improvements

    They both have the same workflow, but CaDoodle is an offline version. Model files are stored securely on your own computer.

    It tries to mirror the easy to use tools of Tinkercad onto a local program and doesn't have a steep learning curve like traditional CADs
