LibreCAD (originally QCad then CADuntu) is a multiplatform open source 2D CAD application. It is based on Qt the leading cross-platform application and UI development framework.

It offers support for layers, blocks, splines, polylines, ellipse tools, advanced tangent line & circle tools, transformation tools, an advanced snapping system and more.

LibreCAD is focuses on creating only 2D geometry so it is really fast and lightweight, with an installer of less than 30 MB. The application can be also used from command line. You can use the spacebar to activate the text interface and start giving commands to draw elements.
