Since FreeCAD is primarily designed to be a solid modeller, it is better suited to deal with solid Shapes. It can import and display Meshes in the 3D view, and the Mesh Workbench offers some commands to directly manipulate them. But in many cases the Mesh first needs to be converted to a Shape (see Part ShapeFromMesh), or the geometry needs to be recreated using solid modelling techniques from the Part Workbench or the PartDesign Workbench.
