I develop free CNC simulation and control software with ease of use as a top priority. Many thousands of users around the world use CAMotics my Open-Source CNC simulator and CAM software. The Buildbotics CNC controller is another awesome Open-Source product that is powering not only hobbyist CNCs but an increasing number small to midsize CNC businesses attracted by the low cost and ease of use. See https://camotics.org/ and https://buildbotics.com/.

There are many features I would like to develop for both CAMotics and Buildbotics that are usually only available in very expensive commercial software. I want to bring more of these capabilities to the masses and help enable local manufacturing worldwide. Your contributions to either of these projects will help make that possible by allowing me to spend more time developing Open-Source software. If you find yourself in the Petaluma area, send me an email and we'll go get a beer or coffee.
