IMPORTANT NOTE [!NOTE] TL; DR We're focusing on a new work with maximum performance, compatibility and safety. We can't achieve the same on the base of Alicorn. Alicorn is not abandoned, bugs will still be fixed until the day we release a new alternative (and may still feature as a good platform for experiments). The Electron version of Alicorn is now in maintenance mode. Bugs and critical errors will still be fixed once found, but new features (like quickplay) won't likely to be added. This decision was made after struggling with rewriting and adding new features for over a year, with the only result being a shadow of the original version. The reason is complex, but can be concluded as: Expand - Things change fast. Mirrors changing their policies, features added in vanilla, the status of GNU/Linux support, AIs, WebView2 getting bundled, and more. The design of Alicorn is just not flexible to embrace all of these. - Electron. We've been enjoying Electron as an all-in-one JS framework, but with too much cost. The size (both memory and file) of Alicorn has always been one of its major drawbacks and affects it in multiple ways, like availability in modpacks. Over time, we found that Electron can no longer serve as our optimal choice, yet the migration is proven to be hard. - The stale codebase. The development of Alicorn is based on a very agile way, which prioritizes new features over stability","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/Andy-K-Sparklight","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/Andy-K-Sparklight/Alicorn/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
