Drafter for Windows.

  • One installer for 64-bit PCs and one for Windows on Arm. Each installs for you alone, with no administrator, into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\drafter, with Start menu and desktop shortcuts and an uninstaller in Settings → Apps.
  • .fountain files open in Drafter with a double-click; .md and .markdown offer it under Open with.
  • Drafter checks for a new version when it starts (you can turn this off), downloads it in the background, and waits for you to choose Restart.
  • The installers aren't signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen warns about the download: choose More info → Run anyway. Until they are signed, an update is checked against the SHA-512 in the release's latest.yml, not a signature.
  • On Windows on Arm the installer runs emulated and takes a few minutes.
  • The Linux app, the Mac build, and drafter.dev are otherwise unchanged.
