Common questions

Quick answers before you leave this site

Is this official?

No. This is an independent guide that points users toward project-controlled sources and avoids hosting files.

Which build should I download?

Most new users should start with Stable. Canary is for testing newer changes and can be less predictable.

Why does the app not open?

Common causes include the wrong platform package, incomplete extraction, missing executable permission, or a system safety prompt.
