From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Try this! Fusion360 for Linux - project by Cryinkfly. I've seen it work for some people but I havent gotten it to work well for me.
That's excellent - I'll be using this to help bridge my gap over to FreeCAD
There's also a dedicated recipe in "bottles", which I think is based on it at least in part. As I'm trying to move away from fusion, I haven't tried it yet though. Apparently it can work, but can also randomly break with updates...
I've gotten it to "work" but it's fragile and updates tend to break it. I ended up switching to FreeCAD, it's come a long way and version 1.1 is pretty great.
