FreeCAD Version 1.0 Released - FreeCAD News
blog.freecad.org
After more than twenty years of intense and sustained development, the FreeCAD community is proud to announce the release of version 1.0. FreeCAD 1.0 is now available for download on all platforms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5oXSGhK7EY In software development, version 1 usually means: our software is now stable and ready for "real work". If you are a FreeCAD…

Let’s take her out for a spin…

EDIT: annnnnd two crashes on the x86_64 AppImage in twenty minutes, both when attempting to start a sketch on a face. Could easily be my Kubuntu install, but… sigh.

EDIT2: Seeing that some issues might be related to changes to the Appimage framework. I’ll need to see if I need some system updates. Windows version is running smoother, though my middle mouse button stopped working for some reason until restarting the app. If you haven’t tried FreeCAD in a while, give it a shot; you may be pleasantly surprised. If you have, it’s not a vastly different experience than recent daily builds or Ondsel (RIP).

    LOL, that question may be rather dependent on when you last tried it. It’s definitely better than, say, version 0.21.
