## Software
### FreeCAD
FreeCAD stores config in two places on Ubuntu:
* ~/.config/FreeCAD
* ~/.local/share/FreeCAD
The desktop launcher expects to find FreeCAD in `/home/user/Documents/Software/freecad/RC1/FreeCAD_RC1.AppImage`
Desktop Launcher
To make the appimage show up and launch from the desktop launcher, a .desktop file needs to be created in the location `~/.local/share/applications`
1. Do a git pull into that folder
2. Run the python script that updates all the desktop launcher files to use the current logged-in user
3. Move the .desktop file up one directory
4. Move the png up one directory
After this udate the desktop database with `sudo update-desktop-database`
