LinuxCNC controls CNC machines. It can drive milling machines, lathes, 3D printers, laser cutters, plasma cutters, robot arms, hexapods, and more. The project's homepage provides references to the documentation and illustrative videos.

LinuxCNC was initiated 25 years ago and evolved into a very international project with contributions from all over the globe. With release 2.9 of LinuxCNC we also transitioned the documentation to the use of the public crowd translation services of weblate and cordially invite all our users to contribute. The translations we expect to help attract practitioners to the project and also helps educating enthusiasts of all age groups on automated machining.
