You can safely use it. There are very rare occasions when things degrade, regarding functionality as well as error freeness the current developer version is usually the better choice.

Hello Everyone, Good Morning :D I attempted to use the drill pecking G81-G83 and neither were being read by Candle or LaserGrbl though I wrote a manual program of Z axis up & down pecking deeper by 0.1mm at a speed of 20mm per minute. I am however using Freecad .17 as the new graphics needed do not work on my elderly computer Freecad is my preferable Engineering Software and Path has aided in my desire to communicate between Software and Grbl board 3018 mini mill Freecad actually opened my eyes to many other functions I could not imagine Thanks :D
