Default Porch roof framing breakdown

I am planning a porch roof cover & got a sketch from a friend.

what's the easiest way(make that cheap) to estimate lumber needed
for this project ?
Is there software to do this, where I would feed in the dimensions
and the software would break down the lumber sizes/ammounts needed ?


Bring the drawings to your local building supply yard. They'll do a
material takeoff for free.
