WIP: March 10, 2023 (Update Source 11.5 Public Test)

I'm happy to announce that the second public release of the 11.5 source updates is now available for testing! Unless there is an unexpected issue that occurs in this release, this should be the final public release before the 11.5 source updates are merged into the master branch.

If you are able to, please test and let me know if you run into any issues.

How to build 11.5 Update from source

The instructions are pretty much the same as the normal instructions, but with one additional step. Inside the cloned darling folder, run the following commands:

rm -rf build
git fetch 
git checkout update_sources_11.5_alpharelease2
git submodule update --init --recursive

After that, you can follow the usual steps in the darling docs to build darling. Note that if you already have an install of Darling, you will need to uninstall it first.

11.5 Update Source (Public Testing)

I'm happy to announce that the 11.5 source branch (update_sources_11.5_alpharelease1) is now ready for users to publicly test!

How to build 11.5 Update from source

The instructions are pretty much the same as the normal instructions, but with one additional step. Inside the cloned darling folder, run the following commands:

rm -rf build
git fetch 
git checkout update_sources_11.5_alpharelease1
git submodule update --init --recursive

After that, you can follow the usual steps in the darling docs to build darling.

DISCLAIMER: This build is very experimental compared to the normal alpha build from the master branch. There are a lot of stuff that have not been tested in this release. If you are not interested in doing regression testing, we recommend you stick with the master branch.

Alpha: July 4, 2022 (darlingserver merge)

The darlingserver merge

This commit marks the first version of Darling that ditches the kernel module in favor of a fully-userspace-based implementation. This should make Darling much easier to build and use, as well as slightly more stable (no more kernel panics/freezes).

A few stubs

Now moving to a more organized structure. The main folder is getting too
cluttered. Frameworks and private frameworks will eventually be moved
into their respective folders.
