Installation

Stable Releases

Download Freesm Launcher from our official website or the GitHub Releases page. Packages are available for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Freesm Launcher also has a Flake for NixOS users.

Development builds

Please understand that these builds are not intended for most users. There may be bugs and other instabilities. You have been warned.

There are development builds available through:

• GitHub Actions (includes builds from pull requests opened by contributors).
• nightly.link (this will always point only to the latest version of the develop branch).

These builds contain debug information in the binaries, so their file sizes are relatively larger. Prebuilt Development builds are provided for Linux, Windows, and macOS.
