want to contribute!!

Post by JimmyAndreson »

Hello All
I am a CAE engineer. 2,5 years of coding with python and C++. I had used freecad with GUI but not compiled or checked to see what can I do. I want to get involved at FEM and some BUG fixings. How can I contribute ?
thanks, have a great health

Depending on your likings there are pleanty of things to do in C++, Python, on the GUI side or on App side, on preprocessing, postprocessing, meshing. Depending on your favourite solver or your favourite mesh order (edge, face solid) ... or just fixing the bugs from mantis bug tracker.

Best is to disscuss it on the forum here before.

Get latest FreeCAD from github compile it and start to play with FEM.

@JimmyAndreson perhaps you can help me populate the Onboarding FEM Devs wiki page in your journey to contribute to FreeCAD ? :P

@bernd how does it look so far?
