About LeoCAD
------------

LeoCAD is a CAD program for creating virtual LEGO models. It's available
for free under the GNU Public License v2 and works on the Windows, Linux
and macOS Operating Systems.


Installation
------------

You can download the latest version of LeoCAD and its Parts Library from
the main website at https://www.leocad.org

It's recommended that you install the latest drivers for your video card
since LeoCAD uses OpenGL to take advantage of hardware acceleration for
rendering.

- LeoCAD for Windows:

  Download the latest LeoCAD-Windows.exe to your computer, double click on
  the icon to launch the installer and follow the instructions.

- LeoCAD for Linux:

  There are multiple ways to install LeoCAD on Linux.

  * AppImage:

  Download the latest LeoCAD-Linux.AppImage, make the file executable
  (chmod +x) and run it.

  * Flatpak:

  You can also install LeoCAD releases as a Flatpak from Flathub:
    https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.leocad.LeoCAD

  Note: there might be a delay for new releases to appear there. If
  you have it already installed, it will be updated.

  * From source:

  If you prefer to compile LeoCAD yourself, go to the GitHub releases page
  at https://github.com/leozide/leocad/releases/latest and download the
  source archive from there. If you do not already have a Parts Library
  installed, you will need to download one and follow the installation
  instructions. More information on how to compile your own executable is
  available in the Documentation section of https://www.leocad.org

- LeoCAD for macOS:

  Download the latest LeoCAD-macOS.dmg to your computer, double click on
  the icon to open the archive, copy LeoCAD.app to your Applications folder
  and then launch it from there.
