Onshape Desktop Application

Download Onshape standalone app (release notes).

“Onshape is the first and only full-cloud 3D CAD system that lets everyone on a design team simultaneously work together using a web browser, phone or tablet. CAD Anywhere, Anytime, On Any Device.”

So, there is no official desktop application since you can use Onshape on a desktop computer using web browser.

But using web browser in this case is not always convenient — you lost all standard ways to open app or to switch to it. What if you want to easily switch to Onshape using cmd+tab? And not to lose Onshape among other web pages?

Please note – it is unofficial application.

You don't need to worry about updates, once installed, application will be updated automatically (in the same way as Google Chrome).

# Installation ## OS X Nothing special. Just [download](https://onshape-download.develar.org/download/osx), double click to mount it and drag the application icon to the `/Applications` folder. After the app is dragged to your Applications folder, you can run it normally — from the Finder, Launchpad, Spotlight, dock, or anything else. The first time you open a downloaded application, you’ll see a warning. Agree to open the file and you won’t see the warning again.
