Frameleaf Desktop 0.1.2
Desktop 0.1.2 ships with the Frameleaf Library 1.2.4 companion for Apple Silicon, Windows x64 and Ubuntu 24.04 x64. The companion lets you start and manage a photo library on this computer from Run Frameleaf here.
Apple Silicon Mac
Open the disk image and drag Frameleaf into Applications. To host a library on this Mac, open the Frameleaf Companion Server 1.2.4 PKG and follow the installer. Open Frameleaf, choose Run Frameleaf here, and follow setup. The companion includes Chromium for Studio rendering.
Choose Connect to my server if you already have a Library. On supported Macs, Touch ID can unlock a saved sign-in.
Windows x64
Download the Desktop EXE for a standard installation or the MSI for managed deployment. To host a library on this PC, also run FrameleafCompanion_1.2.4_x64-setup-unsigned.exe. Open Frameleaf, choose Run Frameleaf here, and follow setup.
These installers are unsigned, so Windows may show an unknown-publisher or SmartScreen warning. Frameleaf verifies the signed runtime inside them before it runs anything. Choose Connect to my server to connect to an existing Library instead.
Ubuntu 24.04
On an Intel or AMD computer, download the Desktop DEB and both companion DEBs. Open Terminal in the download folder and install them together.
sudo apt install pkexec ./Frameleaf_0.1.2_amd64.deb ./FrameleafCompanion_1.2.4_amd64_bootstrap.deb ./FrameleafCompanion_1.2.4_amd64_runtime.debOpen Frameleaf, choose Run Frameleaf here, and follow the setup prompts. The companion includes Chromium for Studio rendering.
To connect to an existing library instead, download the Desktop DEB or AppImage for your computer. Choose amd64 for Intel and AMD or arm64 / aarch64 for ARM64, open Frameleaf and choose Connect to my server.
Moving a 1.2.3 library to 1.2.4
Install Desktop 0.1.2 and the 1.2.4 companion; it installs alongside 1.2.3. Stop your server and local management, then under Installed server package choose Library 1.2.4 and continue setup. Your library, photos, saved credentials and Manager pairing move to 1.2.4. Keep the 1.2.3 package installed until the library has started once with 1.2.4. The move is one-way: a library that has run with 1.2.4 cannot go back to 1.2.3.
