Cura
====
This is the new, shiny frontend for Cura. Check [daid/LegacyCura](https://github.com/daid/LegacyCura) for the legacy Cura that everyone knows and loves/hates. We re-worked the whole GUI code at Ultimaker, because the old code started to become unmaintainable.
Logging Issues
------------
For crashes and similar issues, please attach the following information:
* (On Windows) The log as produced by dxdiag (start -> run -> dxdiag -> save output)
* The Cura GUI log file, located at
* `%APPDATA%\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log` (Windows), or usually `C:\Users\\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log`
* `$USER/Library/Application Support/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log` (OSX)
* `$USER/.local/share/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log` (Ubuntu/Linux)
If the Cura user interface still starts, you can also reach this directory from the application menu in Help -> Show settings folder
For additional support, you could also ask in the #cura channel on FreeNode IRC. For help with development, there is also the #cura-dev channel.
Dependencies
------------
* [Uranium](https://github.com/Ultimaker/Uranium) Cura is built on top of the Uranium framework.
