Funny you should mention that. LAVA has created a new subforum dedicated to the LabVIEW Community edition, and this thread (among a couple others) have been moved into it. Feel free to post questions comments, and information regarding the community edition there.
The LabVIEW community edition, community is tiny right now and it's up to all of us to build it up and help others. We are the pioneers so to speak. Don't forget we have the LabVIEW Wiki to use as a place to create compatibility tables and information. Creating a LabVIEW compatibility table should be the first thing on there, actually.
If I work for a company, can I use VIPM Community Edition to create packages for the community?
Yes, if the packages you're distributing are free of charge, made publicly available, and are open source (meaning: you allow others to see and edit the code, and use it in their own applications, per an industry standard open source license), then you can use VIPM Community Edition to create/develop/build your packages.
Which features does VIPM Community Edition include?
VIPM Community Edition allows users to access advanced package building (e.g. most Pro package building features) and configuration management (e.g. create/edit VIPC files) features. It does NOT provide advanced licensing, password protection, or Pro repository management/client features. However, if you're looking to share your free, open-source tools with the community, we've got more exciting news for you, coming soon...
As part of its commitment to empowering the LabVIEW community, NI revealed this huge news at a community event instead of an NI conference. As a board member of GDevCon Limited, I was excited that NI chose GDevCon#2, an independent conference open to all graphical developers, to unveil its LabVIEW Community Edition.
LabVIEW Home Edition has now been replaced by the free LabVIEW Community Edition from National Instruments!

LabVIEW (software interface) can communicate with Raspberry Pi 4 (hardware interface) using NI LabVIEW LINX Toolkit. Here we use LabVIEW 2020 community edition (free version) that supports the LINX library. We will use the Raspberry Pi OS 2019 operating system for better compatibility and to avoid bugs.
Once you download the file (iso format), open the folder in window explorer and Install LabVIEW community edition (this generally takes 5-10 mins depending on your system hardware and performance). Once installed, reboot and verify the software by opening NI LabVIEW edition via startup menu.
Community license
The community edition is a free edition of G2CPU which is free to use by anyone for non-commercial actions.
Feel free to develop, learn and play. A perfect pairing with LabVIEW community edition.
Note from NI Tools Network
The Community license will not show up on your NI account, it will be a computer-based license so if you want to transfer the license to another system you would need to reapply for a new community license.
Due to the longevity and popularity of the LabVIEW language, and the ability for users to extend its functions, a large ecosystem of third party add-ons has developed via contributions from the community. Most of these add-ons are available for direct download and installation into LabVIEW using VI Package Manager (VIPM),[12] the official package manager for LabVIEW add-ons. National Instruments also hosts a marketplace for both free and paid LabVIEW add-ons called the NI Tools Network.
There is a low-cost LabVIEW Student Edition aimed at educational institutions for learning purposes. There is also an active community of LabVIEW users who communicate through several electronic mailing lists (email groups) and Internet forums.
