<h1>About us</h1>
<h2>How it started</h2>
<p><strong>LibreCAD</strong> started as a project to build CAM capabilities into the community version of QCad for use with a Mechmate CNC router.</p>
<p>Since QCad CE was built around the outdated Qt3 library, it had to be ported to Qt4 before additional enhancements. This gave rise to CADuntu.</p>
<p>The project was known as CADuntu only for a couple of months before the community decided that the name was inappropriate. After some discussion within the community and research on existing names, CADuntu was renamed to <strong>LibreCAD</strong>.</p>
<p>Porting the rendering engine to Qt4 proved to be a large task, so <strong>LibreCAD</strong> initially still depended on the Qt3 support library.
The Qt4 porting was completed eventually during the development of 2.0.0 series, thanks to our master developer Rallaz, and <strong>LibreCAD</strong> has become Qt3 free except in the 1.0.0 series.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, for <strong>LibreCAD</strong> 2.2.0 series, Qt5 is mandatory.</p>

<h2>Linux</h2>
<p>Check your distributions preferred package manager, if <strong>LibreCAD</strong> is available there. But the version may be a bit older.<br><br>
For Debian/Ubuntu distributions, you can use our <a href="https://launchpad.net/~librecad-dev" class="lc-hover-l3" target="_blank">Launchpad PPAs <i class="fa fa-external-link"></i></a> for stable or daily versions.<br><br>

<h2>Build from source</h2>
<p><strong>This is an option for all platforms.</strong></p>
<p>If we don't have the binary installer you are looking for, you can try to build <strong>LibreCAD</strong> from source code.<br>
How this works for each platform can be read in our <a href="https://wiki.librecad.org/index.php?title=Build_from_source" class="lc-hover-l3" target="_blank">Wiki <i class="fa fa-external-link"></i></a>.</p>
<p>Source code could be downloaded <a href="https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/" class="lc-hover-l3" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-download"></i><span class="lc-icontext"> from GitHub</span></a> as ZIP archive.</p>
<p>Or you can clone or fork our repository, what is recommend if you plan to contribute.</p>

<h1>Join LibreCAD Community</h1>
<p>The <strong>LibreCAD</strong> team is a small group of dedicated people.
Lots of things have been worked out, but plenty of bugs and features are still waiting to be solved.
How can you help? We need people that are coders, writers, testers, translators.</p>
<p>An open source community is a dynamic thing, people come and go as their private situation drive or stop them in contributing.
So it will always help if you have existing resources we can use, know what other projects do in specific areas, or, most important, do what you do best and have fun doing it!<br><br>
You don't have to sign a lifetime contract to contribute. If you apply one patch or more, garden the wiki or help others in the forum, our broad user base will appreciate your work.
</p>
<p><strong>Come join our community, and contribute in any way you like.</strong></p>
