# What FloorPlanCraft is

> A web floor planner for commercial spaces: draw the space, furnish it from catalogs made for your business, and see it in 3D.

FloorPlanCraft is a floor planner that runs in your browser. You draw your space in 2D, furnish it from a catalog made for your kind of business, and look at the result in 3D or walk through it at eye level.

## What you can do

- **Start fast** from a furnished template, a ready plan at a common size, or one blank room. See [Start a plan](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/start-a-plan.md).
- **Draw** rooms, walls, doors, windows, floors and stairs in the 2D plan. See [Rooms and walls](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/rooms-and-walls.md).
- **Furnish** from the catalog for your business: real branded products where the catalog has them, and generic concept models. See [Add and arrange items](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/add-and-arrange-items.md).
- **Check** the layout as you work: the plan check flags overlapping items, blocked doorways and tight spaces. See [Plan check and clearances](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/plan-check-and-clearances.md).
- **See it in 3D**: turn the model, paint walls and floors, and walk through it. See [Look at your plan in 3D](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/the-3d-view.md) and [Walk through your plan](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/walk-through-your-plan.md).
- **Share** a view-only link, save a picture, or export the plan as PNG, PDF, SVG or JSON. See [Share and export a plan](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/share-and-export.md).
- **Show it live**: with Live 3D, a connected restaurant, booking or play venue app shows its tables, bookings or play zones on your plan as they change. See [What Live 3D is](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/what-is-live-3d.md).

## Who it is for

People who plan a business space and want to try a layout before they spend money on it. Each kind of space has its own starter plans and catalog, including:

- Indoor playgrounds and soft play
- Restaurants, cafés and commercial kitchens
- Dental clinics, medical clinics, hospital units and labs
- Classrooms and daycares
- Home gyms, hair salons and offices
- Shops, supermarkets, pharmacies and furniture showrooms
- Warehouses and auto repair shops

## What a plan is, and is not

A plan is a concept layout: a way to test sizes, spacing and flow, and to show the idea to your team, landlord or contractor.

> **Warning:** A plan is not a certified architectural, engineering, safety, accessibility or building-code document. Its checks are planning guidance. Have a qualified professional review anything you build.

## What you need

A web browser. You can try the planner without an account; saving a plan and sharing a link need one. See [Accounts and signing in](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/accounts-and-signing-in.md).

Drawing rooms and walls needs a desktop or laptop. On a phone you can open plans, look at them in 3D, add items, change finishes and share. See [A tour of the planner](https://floorplancraft.com/docs/planner-tour.md#on-a-phone).
