Signed release
Chudware desktop
Builds for Windows, Linux, and macOS, published from the download page in your workspace.
Native desktop
Download Chudware.
Signed builds for Windows, Linux, and macOS. Every download is issued to an account, so the buttons here open the download page in your workspace — signing in is the only extra step.

Windows
Signed builds that update themselves from the same signed release manifests.
Linux
Chudware ships as a distro package where one is available, or use the one-line terminal install below.
macOS
Zip archive: unpack and drag Chudware to Applications. On Apple silicon the Intel build runs through Rosetta 2.
All native builds are 64-bit and need a graphics driver capable of a modern hardware-accelerated 3D context; without one the application does not start.
Linux
Install from a terminal.
One command installs Chudware on any distribution: it detects your package manager, installs the signed distro package where one is available, falls back to the portable build otherwise, and registers the desktop entry.
curl -fsSL https://app.chudware.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --token <token from your account>The token is personal and expires after 15 minutes. Sign in at app.chudware.com, open the download page, and it issues one alongside this same command, ready to paste.

- AppImage
- One portable file with nothing to install; make it executable and run it.
- .tar.zst
- Plain archive for any distribution; unpack and run from anywhere.
No installation at all
The same application also runs in a browser tab.
The browser workspace is the full product — not a video stream of a machine in a data centre, and not a viewer. It is the quickest way to try Chudware or to work from a machine you cannot install on.
One account, both routes
Use parametric modeling, assemblies, CAM, PLM, simulation, reverse engineering, and the AI copilot straight from the tab. The account that signs in to the browser workspace is the account the desktop app activates with.

Install it, or open it in a tab.
Both routes run the same product against the same account.
