Polaris v0.3.8

Install

Platform	Download
macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon)	*-universal.dmg or *-universal-mac.zip
Windows	*.exe (installer) or *-win.zip (portable)
Linux	*.AppImage or *.deb

These builds are neither signed nor notarized, so each platform needs to be
told once that the app is safe to run:

• macOS: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Polaris.app, or
  right-click → Open → Open anyway. The zip carries one less layer of quarantine
  propagation than the dmg.
• Windows: SmartScreen will block it — choose More info → Run anyway, or use
  the portable zip instead.
• Linux: AppImage needs libnss3 libgtk-3-0 libasound2 on the host. Under
  Ubuntu 24.04+ AppArmor restrictions, or without a SUID chrome-sandbox, start
  it with --no-sandbox.

First run

The app asks for your lab's Polaris server address and validates it against
/api/health. You can change it later from the Server… menu item (Cmd+,).

The server must be running a backend that whitelists the desktop origin, or
login will fail. The desktop page is served from app://polaris, so every
request is cross-origin, and older backends reject the preflight in production
mode.
