From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Some good ol pen and paper or some kolourpaint
I could but it would be a hassle to draw from scratch an entire blueprint every time some idea came to us to improve the space. Hence, the digital option.
Was a bit of a joke answer but pen and paper did work for people in the good ol days.
I took it as a good humoured take ad I answered it in the same fashion.
I could, in fact, draw the entire thing on paper. Technical drawing was taugh to me in school and I took quite well to it; I still like to draw today but more as an artistic expression.
Although I wouldn't consider what I make as artistic under any light.
But my original still holds. Yes, I could. But I would have to make everything from scratch every single time we wanted to try an idea.
Not really practical.
I'm going to look into LibreCAD and FreeCAD. Seem to be the most promising solutions.
