base on A powerful, innovative and intuitive EDA suite for everyone! # LibrePCB [](https://www.patreon.com/librepcb) [](https://librepcb.discourse.group/) [](https://telegram.me/LibrePCB_dev) [](https://librepcb.org/) [](https://librepcb.org/docs/) [](https://dev.azure.com/LibrePCB/LibrePCB/_build/latest?definitionId=2&branchName=master) [](https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/projects/1652) [](https://repology.org/project/librepcb/versions) ## About LibrePCB LibrePCB is a free [EDA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_design_automation) suite to develop printed circuit boards on Windows, Linux and MacOS. More information and screenshots are available at [librepcb.org](https://librepcb.org). ## Installation & Usage **Official stable releases are provided at our [download page](https://librepcb.org/download/).** **Please read our [user manual](https://librepcb.org/docs/) to see how you can install and use LibrePCB.** The [quickstart tutorial](https://librepcb.org/docs/quickstart/) provides a step-by-step guide through the whole process of designing a PCB. ## Contributing Contributions are welcome! See [librepcb.org/contribute](https://librepcb.org/contribute/) and [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](CONTRIBUTING.md) for details. For internal details take a look at the [developers documentation](https://developers.librepcb.org/). ## Development ***WARNING: The `master` branch always contains the latest UNSTABLE version of LibrePCB. Everything you do with this unstable version could break your workspace, libraries or projects, so you should not use it productively! For productive use, please install an official release as described in the [user manual](https://librepcb.org/docs/). For development, please read details [here](https://developers.librepcb.org/df/d30/doc_developers.html#doc_developers_unstable_versions).*** ### Requirements To compile and run LibrePCB, you need the following software components: - C++ compiler: g++, MinGW or Clang (any version with C++20 support should work) - [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/) toolchain (GNU, not MSVC) - [Qt](http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/) >= 6.2 (make sure the [imageformats](https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtimageformats-index.html) plugin is installed too as it will be needed at runtime!). - [OpenCASCADE](https://www.opencascade.com/) OCCT or OCE (optional, OCCT highly preferred) - [OpenGL Utility Library](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL_Utility_Library) GLU (optional) - [zlib](http://www.zlib.net/) - [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org/) - [CMake](https://cmake.org/) 3.22 or newer #### Prepared Docker Image Instead of installing the dependencies manually on your system (see instructions below), you can also use one of our [Docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/librepcb/librepcb-dev) with all dependencies pre-installed (except GUI tools like QtCreator). These images are actually used for CI, but are also useful to build LibrePCB locally. #### Installation on Debian/Ubuntu/Mint ##### Ubuntu >= 22.04 ```bash sudo apt-get install build-essential git cmake openssl zlib1g zlib1g-dev \ qt6-base-dev qt6-tools-dev qt6-tools-dev-tools qt6-l10n-tools \ libqt6core5compat6-dev qt6-declarative-dev libqt6opengl6-dev libqt6svg6-dev \ qt6-image-formats-plugins libglu1-mesa-dev libtbb-dev libxi-dev \ occt-misc libocct-*-dev rustc cargo sudo apt-get install qtcreator # optional ``` ##### Ubuntu 20.04 ```bash sudo apt-get install build-essential git cmake openssl zlib1g zlib1g-dev \ qt5-default qtdeclarative5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qttools5-dev \ qtquickcontrols2-5-dev libqt5opengl5-dev libqt5svg5-dev \ qt5-image-formats-plugins libglu1-mesa-dev liboce-*-dev rustc cargo sudo apt-get install qt5-doc qtcreator # optional ``` #### Installation on Arch Linux ```bash sudo pacman -S base-devel git cmake openssl zlib desktop-file-utils \ shared-mime-info qt6-base qt6-5compat qt6-declarative qt6-svg qt6-tools \ qt6-imageformats opencascade rust sudo pacman -S qt6-doc qtcreator # optional ``` *Note: Instead of installing the dependencies and building LibrePCB manually, you could install the package [librepcb-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librepcb-git/) from the AUR. The package clones and builds the latest version of the `master` branch from GitHub.* #### Installation on Mac OS X 1. Install Xcode through the app store and start it at least once (for the license) 2. Install [homebrew](https://github.com/Homebrew/brew) (**the** package manager) 3. Install dependencies: `brew update && brew install qt6 cmake opencascade rust` 4. Make the toolchain available: `brew unlink qt && brew link --force qt6` #### Installation on Windows Download and run the [Qt for Windows installer](https://download.qt.io/official_releases/online_installers/qt-unified-windows-x64-online.exe) from [here](https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/). LibrePCB does not compile with MSVC, so you must install following components with the Qt installer: - MinGW 11.2.0 64-bit compiler - Qt binaries for MinGW 11.2.0 64-bit (use the latest 6.x version) - Qt 5 Compatibility Module for MinGW 11.2.0 64-bit - Qt Image Formats for MinGW 11.2.0 64-bit - CMake In addition, install the Rust toolchain with [Rustup](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/installation/windows.html). Use the toolchain `x86_64-pc-windows-gnu` as we don't support MSVC! For the OpenCascade library the installation procedure is not that easy unfortunately. Basically you have to build it by yourself, see instructions [here](https://dev.opencascade.org/doc/overview/html/build_upgrade__building_occt.html). However, to avoid this effort you could instead just set the CMake option `USE_OPENCASCADE=0` (can be set in the QtCreator build config) to allow compiling LibrePCB without OpenCascade. ### Cloning It's important to clone the repository recursively to get all submodules too: ```bash git clone --recursive https://github.com/LibrePCB/LibrePCB.git && cd LibrePCB ``` ### Updating When updating the repository, make sure to also update all the submodules recursively. Otherwise you may get strange compilation errors: ```bash git submodule update --init --recursive ``` ### Building You can either build LibrePCB using Qt Creator, or you can build on the command line using cmake. To build LibrePCB using cmake/make: ```bash mkdir build && cd build cmake .. make -j8 ``` The binary can then be found in `build/apps/librepcb/`.
