Linux - AppImage

Please try the automatically built snapshots first if you are running a supported distribution (see below), the following AppImage builds are still experimental.

The ARM 64-bit (aarch64) AppImage is built and tested only for Raspberry PI OS 64-bit (which may still be in beta test).

Linux - Snap

Or install with

					# snap install openscad-nightly
				

To use Gamepads or supported 3D Mouse devices (like the SpaceMouse series from 3D Connexion) the following command is needed to allow the snap package access to the joystick interface.

					# snap connect openscad:joystick snapd:joystick
				

Linux - Flatpak


Note that this is not automatically updated as with most other nightly builds, but instead is manually selected builds.

Setup beta repository

					# flatpak remote-add --user --if-not-exists flathub-beta \
					  https://flathub.org/beta-repo/flathub-beta.flatpakrepo
				

Install OpenSCAD beta version

					# flatpak install --user flathub-beta org.openscad.OpenSCAD
				

WebAssembly

WebAssembly Logo

Many thanks to Dominick (DSchroer) for making this possible. Build instructions and examples can be found in the openscad-wasm repository on github

The ZIP package contains an experimental build based on this work for WebAssembly allowing OpenSCAD to run inside a web browser. Right now it's a bit slow and there's no support for preview, fonts or a built-in GUI. Some of those things will hopefully be supported or improved soon, however GUI support is unlikely to be added.

Try it out at https://ochafik.com/openscad or start with a slightly bigger example.

Linux - Distribution Packages

The packages are automatically built based on the master branch on github.

Note: The packages are called "openscad-nightly" so it's possible to install the development snapshot packages in parallel to the release version from the official repositories.

Debian / Ubuntu packages built on OpenSUSE build service

The release key must be added to the apt key-ring so apt-get, apt and other tools can validate the packages.
Key ID: 75F3214F30EB8E08 (valid till 2025-07-09)
Key UID: home:t-paul OBS Project <home:t-paul@build.opensuse.org> Fingerprint: 5F4A 8A2C 8BB1 1716 F294 82BB 75F3 214F 30EB 8E08

NOTE: If you get errors about an expired key valid till 2023-06-14, please re-import the key.

					# wget -qO- https://files.openscad.org/OBS-Repository-Key.pub | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/obs-openscad-nightly.asc
				

After the key is added, the repository URL needs to be configured. This can be done by creating a new file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openscad.list with the URL specific to the distribution.

The repository links below are shown as https, please check for your installation if https is supported. In Debian/Ubuntu this is usually handled by the apt-transport-https package. OBS also supports HTTP links, but it's recommended to use https whenever possible.
