A small commercial building project was first designed in [[Blender]]. We were then faced with the task of remodeling it in [[Revit|Autodesk Revit]]. We figured it would be easier to build an entire BIM application and construction documentation tool from scratch rather than face the pain of remodeling it in [[Revit]]. It turned out that it was. | A small commercial building project was first designed in [[Blender]]. We were then faced with the task of remodeling it in [[Revit|Autodesk Revit]].

The first packaged build for the public, changing it from an experimental set of scripts into a distributed package was done a month and a half later, on October 13, 2019. A week later, we were surprised to learn that our package was being used to visualise data from a compactor machine being used to build a highway. This was the first tangible evidence that the BlenderBIM Add-on had great potential. | The first packaged build for the public, changing it from an experimental set of scripts into a distributed package was done a month and a half later, on October 13, 2019.
