Cura (free)
Cura is a combined package for Skeinforge and PrintRun. All pre-configured perfectly for the Ultimaker. This is an OpenSource community driven project. It comes with a new user interface, which is much friendlier to use then RepG and Skeinforge.
ReplicatorG (free, by Ultimaker)
You can 3D print with your Ultimaker with free/open source software, called "ReplicatorG". Ultimaker puts a lot of effort in developing the best 3D printing application there is,
so if you have suggestions, please add them here (we're watching this page!)!

Cura is now the officially supported Ultimaker software. ReplicatorG is now obsolete and unsupported. Click here for Cura's Documentation... |
