Create a Workspace
When starting LibrePCB the first time, a wizard asks you to open or create a workspace. The workspace is just a directory where settings, libraries and (optionally) projects will be stored. Once created, it can be used from all supported operating systems (i.e. it is platform independent) and from any LibrePCB version.
You can just accept the default workspace location (you could still move it to another location afterwards, if desired):
If the selected path does not contain a workspace yet, clicking on Next will show a page to choose the most important settings:
It is recommended to select at least your preferred norm and length unit since these usually depend on where you’re living.

You can change these settings at any time later in the control panel under . |
After clicking Finish, the control panel shows up and you’re ready to start using LibrePCB!
