Doubtless there is some content on the wiki but it doesn't jump out at you.
Great to see this work progressing. Hopefully, when / if Fusion cuts off hobby users, FreeCAD will be more than capable of leading the charge.
Personally, 3 axis simultaneous is my limit unless I win the lottery. But given that I've never bought a ticket, I'm not holding my breath. Beyond Fusion (and FeeCAD), the options for decent CAM are too expensive for most hobby users and students.
