BCFier also features a standalone Windows app that lets you review BCF files without the need of third party tools. GPL-3.0
Dynamo See also Revit extensions. Dynamo extends building information modeling with the data and logic environment of a graphical algorithm editor. Dynamo is an open source tool, built on a community that contributes to making it better. Apache-2.0
Grevit.png Grevit See also Revit extensions. "Build your BIM Model directly in Grasshopper. Grevit allows you to define BIM Elements in Grasshopper or SketchUp and translate them directly to Autodesk Revit or AutoCad Architecture. Grevit follows a one way process so your design model remains the geometrical source of truth: send geometry and attributes from Rhino/Grassopper or SketchUp to Autodesk Revit or ACA." MIT
HOK-Revit-Addins See also Revit extensions. HOK-Revit-Addins A description is missing MIT
