    Do you have any good resources for learning FreeCAD coming from Fusion 360? I’ve taken a couple runs at it but it’s just not clicking for me. Feels like I’m trying to operate Fusion with my feet every time I try to use it.

      The FreeCAD team have a series of video tutorials on their website alongside a wiki/documentation for individual functions if you’re searching for those.

      Also, there is an interface style called “OpenInventor” in the settings that changes the layout of the toolbars into a near-mimic of AutoDesk Inventor, and if you enable the “Blender” 3d modeling style (warning, does take dedicated graphics hardware to run at good speeds), things like plane layouts and rotating the object should match Inventor as well.
