There are a handful of previous requests to bring F360 to linux. If I remember correctly, many of them were archived because the Fusion team has determined the difficulty of porting to linux to not be worth it. The upkeep for OSX already is tough and added a platform with less-standardized hardware is even more difficult especially when Linux is often designed to run on bare minimum hardware, which doesn't bode well for CAD/CAM/CAE software. I still voted this up because I would give anything to run F360 on my Ubuntu distro, but I doubt we will see that for a long time. Either way, search "linux" in the idea station sometime and take a look at the comments on previous posts. The fusion team chimes in relatively often.
I really just wanted to add my support for it, although I understand the Linux market is a small share of the pc market, I wonder if it would be as small a market in CAD, seeing as people who use CAD are likely reasonably tech savvy and therefore much more likely to use Linux, hopefully one day it will be supported. Windows has become borderline malware nowadays 😕
I would also like it, but being a developer myself I know it would be a hell to support more than one distro, most of the time binaries don't run in differents version of one distro because of ABI compatibility problems 😞 the code would be full of conditional compilation, because different version of the compiler don't support the same features
With distro-agnostic solutions like snaps, flatpak and appimages, the decision to port to Linux becomes simpler. Pick a platform, code to it, the snap/flatpak/appimage takes care of bundling the required libraries and such and can be run an ANY Linux distro. Canonical has staff dedicated to converting apps to snaps and Redhat/IBM has the same for flatpak.
If there is an OS where coding is easy, and you can do whatever you want in an easy way to code...is GNU linux....It's just an excuse out of the typical prejudice.
Please develop Fusion360 for Linux. I'm a little panicked that you're going to stop supporting Eagle in favor of the new integrated Fusion and leave me high and dry.
If you can't run it natively on Linux, at least make it wine compatible or make an wine AppImage from it. Or at least don't block community attempts to do so 🙂
