How to install FreeCAD from github

Post by maxwang531 »

First of all, I am sorry for this, this question may be really stupid. I am currently using the windows10 system, and I have installed FreeCAD on my system through the packaged installer. The specific information is as follows.

Code: Select all

OS: Windows 10 Version 2009
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.19.24291 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-19
Hash: 7b5e18a0759de778b74d3a5c17eba9cb815035ac
Python version: 3.8.6+
Qt version: 5.15.2
Coin version: 4.0.1
OCC version: 7.5.0
Currently I need to try FreeCAD under this branch https://github.com/sliptonic/freecad/tr ... /camotics2, but I am not sure how to use the downloaded file. Can anyone provide me with some suggestions?

You have to compile yourself, see Compile on Windows.
