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.

Is there an application for building/drawing stuff. I know blender exists, but its a little overcomplicated for what I'm thinking of.

Also where can I post such questions, regarding software? If this isn't the right place, tell me where I can post it.

Tell us more about what you're thinking of building/drawing. I like FreeCAD, but it's also quite complicated, depending on what your goals are.
