Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

FreeCAD and undefined behavior in C++ code: meditation for developers
FreeCAD is a general-purpose parametric 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modeler. This open-source software application is based on C, C++, and Python. PVS-Studio doesn't support Python at the moment, so I will only check the C and C++ parts. Here is the link to the project code.

Looking for a poor man's AutoCad
LibreCAD, OpenSCAD (more script based and more for solids), FreeCAD.

Which CAD software should I use?
would freecad be an option?

if any of you guys uses a 3d printer to make concrete molds, please give me the pdfs for them.
Hi! 3d printers read .stl files, generally. You can design your own files for free with FreeCAD in a relatively simple format before sending them to your slicer and printer. Out of personal experience, design a silicone component into your mold, as the hard plastic is unforgiving when de-molding. Good luck!
- is there anyway to specif that autosaves are stored in one central path?

Rocket Nosecone Modelling
Second Way: I don't use this second method as the first one already works for me. However, you can download FreeCAD, which is an OpenSourced Free to use software for many hobbyists. I personally think it's slightly trickier to get used to but it works! You can watch this video to model a nose cone in FreeCAD.

Linux Software: a curated list of Linux software
Nice! I'd add FreeCAD, and also the RealThunder fork https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD which adds enhancement(seems to be getting slowly merged to mainline).

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
Lithium Titanate batteries. Nothing else is lightweight, safe, currently available, and lasts 20000 cycles.
ESPHome. It's a framework for declaratively building firmware for microcontrollers, based on rules like "This pin is an input with debouncing, when it changes, toggle this".
Contributing to them has probably been the most fun I've had programming in years.
We just need power management, and a C++ implementation of the Native API client. It's so close to being able to replace most of what I'd normally code by hand in Arduino.

RealThunder's fork of FreeCAD: https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD
They fix so many issues. Linear patterns can duplicate other linear patterns!
Vorta: It's the best backup technology I've seen. Just an easy guided GUI for Borg, which gives you deduplication. I just wish they let you deduplicate across multiple repositories somehow.

Dune 3D – an open source parametric 3D CAD app bassed on OCCT
JFTR, FCStd-files produced by RealThunder's LinkStage[0] (fork of FreeCAD) is not fully backward compatible with an official FreeCAD app, and wise versa.
So, if you are planning to use LinkStage app for some large project, be ready to use only one app for the whole project and be ready to lost in whole or in part compatibility with the users of an official FreeCAD.

RealThunder Snap channels
edge is where all the exciting new features got released. It contains the latest commit from the FreeCAD Link Branch (https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD). Unlike the convention, here, the user is encouraged to try the edge release, to help improve all new features so that they can one day land in upstream FreeCAD.

Github version with Midnight UI?
I downloaded this latest version 2023.01.31 from Github but i have no idea how to install it and if it is the right version that will work with Midnigh GUI.

BIM Workbench has no models in the Column tool?

"One transformed shape does not intersect support" when Mirrored
Alternative solution is to use Realthunder's build. It doesn't have that limitation in addition to a whole bunch of other QoL additions.

Link3/Realthunder MacOS Mojave
As for your question, better to open a ticket on realthunder's Link repo: https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD/issues

Just finished an Infinity cube remix (needed to print a smaller one and gaps can't be scaled). I created one block and one link using a spreadsheet and partdesign. I then cloned/mirrored and manually placed the rest of the blocks. Is there a better way?
I don't know for regular FC, but Realthunders Branch allows multiple solids in a PartDesign body, so with that one, you could use Multitransform to create a Mirror and linear pattern transformation (probably before adding the grooves for the links)
