This is a very great tool. It makes using Subversion (our version control system on sf.net) a real pleasure. You can throught out the explorer integration, easily manage Revisions, check on Diffs, resolve Confilcts, make branches, and so on.... The commit dialog itself is a piece of art. It gives you an overview over your changed files and allows you to put them in the commit or not. That makes it easy to bundle the changes to logical units and give them an clear commit message.


A full featured but proprietary UML program. It has a lot of major features, including reverse engineering C++ source code.
You find ToroiseSVN on [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ tortoisesvn.tigris.org].

For every serious software development you need tools. Here is a list of tools we use to develop FreeCAD:

Platform independent tools

Qt-Toolkit

The Qt-toolkit is a state of the art, platform independent user interface design tool. It is contained in the LibPack of FreeCAD, but can also be downloaded at Qt project.

Inkscape

This is a great vector drawing program. It adheres to the SVG standard and is used to draw Icons and Pictures. Inkscape is Free and Open Source Software licensed under the GPL. Get it at www.inkscape.org.

Doxygen

A very good and stable tool to generate source documentation from the .h and .cpp files.

Gimp

Not much to say about the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It can manipulate .xpm files which is a very convenient way to handle Icons in QT programs. XPM is basically C-Code which can be compiled into a program. Gimp supports the free .png file format used in the wiki.

Get the GIMP here: www.gimp.org

Gitkraken

This is a proprietary git GUI that is very helpful to learn how git works if you're interested in wanting to contribute to FreeCAD. Relevant pages to research:

OBS Studio

Free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. More details on official website: obsproject.com

OpenCamLib

OpenCamLib (OCL) is an open source library aiming to provide computer aided manufacturing (CAM) algorithms. FreeCAD uses OCL in the experimental 3D surface path operations and other experimental features.

StarUML

A full featured but proprietary UML program. It has a lot of major features, including reverse engineering C++ source code.

Tools on Windows

Visual Studio Community

It can be downloaded at Visual Studio Community.

CamStudio
