dMLX v0.1.0-beta3

A guided first start, six more image models, and a new look.

Highlights

• First-run setup. On first start dMLX recommends an image model and an agent model for your Mac's
  memory, shows the total download, and checks that there is enough free disk space. You can change either
  model, or skip the agent. While the models download you can continue in the background; you can start
  as soon as the image model is ready. The setup shows each model's size before it is downloaded, and a
  message sent before the image model is ready stays in the box, with the download's progress.
• More image models. Settings → Models → Add Model now offers ERNIE Image Turbo, MOSS Image, FLUX.3
  Klein, Boogu Image Turbo, Iris 3B Turbo and Krea 2 Turbo. Every family runs through one adapter and
  gives the same images as mflux's own pipelines. Some of these take minutes per image.
• New look. The Still Water logo and app icon, blue colors, and Settings → General → Appearance:
  System, Light or Dark.
• Crop / Draw. Erasing paint on the canvas now matches the exported image. The agent knows what a
  prepared (marked) image is, and each edit is labeled with the image it was made from.
• Chat. A chat opens at the latest message, and it scrolls to a message being planned and to the
  agent's question.
• Memory. Sizes under 1 MP are planned as 1 MP, so small images no longer reserve too little memory.
  The text encoder is freed when encoding ends (lower peaks for FLUX.3 and MOSS).
• mflux 0.24.

Requirements

Apple Silicon, macOS 15+, 16 GB memory or more. About 7–11 GB of disk for the image model and the agent.

Install

Open the .dmg and drag dMLX onto the Applications folder (a .zip of the same app is also attached), then
right-click → Open the first time (beta builds are not notarized). The first-run setup downloads the models.
