    This is the second release candidate for version 0.0.3. This RC is in feature-freeze, and is intended to help test upcoming features and fix any pertinent issues and bugs. All users are encouraged to test out this release and provide feedback/issue reports when applicable. In the meantime, if you prefer to have the most stable experience possible, you are likely better off waiting for the stable release.

    If this RC is deemed safe to release after the initial 1-week testing phase, it will be promoted to stable and distributed as the final 0.0.3 release. Otherwise, more candidates will be published, and after final tests are concluded and the last RC is marked ready for release, it will be promoted to stable and released as 0.0.3.

    Packages

    Desktop builds will automatically put data in ~/.local/share/eden on Linux, or
    %APPDATA%/eden on Windows. You may optionally create a user directory in the
    same directory as the executable/AppImage to store data there instead.

    Linux

    Linux packages are distributed via AppImage. Each build is optimized for a specific architecture.
    See the Description column for more info. Note that legacy builds will always work on newer systems.
    zsync files are provided for use with certain AppImage updaters.

    Warning

    By default, the AppImages enforce the xcb platform for Qt. Wayland causes a significant
    amount of issues that simply can't be solved on our end. You may change it to Wayland if you
    wish, but expect things to break. You will only receive limited support if using Wayland.
