Web or native Linux version plans?

[maksymN8J95]

We recently switched entirely to Linux and Fusion 360 is the only product in our workflow that is not properly supported or available. Are there any plans to have a proper web browser version alike OnShape or native Linux version? I think there was a webassembly project in the past but it seems not to be available anymore and the other web version uses a Windows remote desktop with a really bad performance. We've been paying the subscription for over two years now, but no Linux support as well as no usable web client will leave us with no other choice but to consider moving to a different CAD software.

Hi @maksymN8J95 

As of now, Autodesk does not officially support a native Linux version of Fusion.

Can Fusion be installed on Linux?

The current web version that uses a Windows remote desktop, as you mentioned, can experience performance issues.

For now, I would recommend continuing to monitor Autodesk's official announcements and the Fusion roadmap for any updates. Your ongoing subscription and patience are appreciated, and Autodesk values your feedback to shape future developments.

Thank you, if I understand correctly, there are currently no plans for a proper web version alike Onshape either?

That's exactly the slow version I referred to - it's not really running in web browser. It's basically a virtual machine running somewhere overseas that's incredibly slow compared to native web browser performance you get with stuff like Onshape. I personally like Fusion and the pricing better so I'd like to stay with it, but there's still no Linux support, despite of growing interest (see  cryinkfly Autodesk-Fusion-360-for-Linux on GitHub). Even a native web browser version would be better than running it locally in a VM or spending hours trying to get it to work with Wine to no avail. The cryinkfly repository tries to make it run on Wine, but I had no success with it and it has already thousands of users. Thousands of potentially paying subscribers that are trying to get the software to run really hard on Linux.
