In my CAD class, the instructor requires explicitly AutoCAD because “that’s the industry standard.” As we know, AutoDork are a bunch pricks who refuses to get up from Microslop’s lap, so I am in a tight spot rn.
Should I use a VM to run or would ACAD Web do the trick? Honestly, I can even try to push my luck with another CAD program that supports .dwg files.


I asked them about VDI, and they asked me back what is it. Not surprising considering every semester course choosing becomes a nightmare.
I will use it for doing homeworks and exams, so speed isn’t my concern.
Just because they don’t know what it is doens’t mean your school doesn’t have it. My school is similar. They get VDI by partnering with an external organization.
I utfg but couldn’t find a vdi app for our school. Ig I’ll use VM since Web version doesn’t have the tools needed.
