I would like to help an open-source project with UI design and UX design. I have over 18 years of experience in the field and have worked with desktop and mobile software on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and Windows Mobile/Windows Phone. Unfortunately my knowledge of Linux is very limited but I’m eager to learn. Could you help me find a project? @thelinuxEXP @linux @macrumors @windowscentral @windows
Subjective take: there’s worse than FreeCAD - sure it’s a bit “old school” but it’s bearable. O. The other hand, the solver has crashed on me so many times… The workbench way of doing things requires some time to get usdmed to, sure, but a crashing solver is far worse.
Oh I get that. I have been making a flight stick with a bunch of curves. There is a ton of problems with solving and the utilities still, especially TNP, midpoint creation, subtractive pipe solving, and QoL things.
However, there are already devs working on it and now a private company devoting resources to it recently. What they still don’t have is a UX designer, purely from a resource standpoint.
The solver can definitely be done in parallel. A UX designer can not necessarily just as easily just as well work on multithreaded FEM solver debugging, curved surface resolution, etc… it is a different resource.
