Heads up

The current version is a developer preview. It collects usage metrics to help debugging.

This is a developer preview, a pre-alpha. It is unstable and untested. It is not production-ready.

Download

Download Aether

Aether is available for Mac OS, Windows and Linux. Our community supports Windows, Mac OS and Linux versions at meta.geteather.net.

Compiling

Aether is a relatively large app with an Electron and Go toolchain, at 100,000+ lines of code. Getting it to compile requires setting up a correct build runtime with the latest versions of Go, Node (for Electron) and C dependencies and development environments. Expect the initial set-up to take a few hours. Be patient! 🙂

Instructions

Compile instructions can be found here on this gist, and at getaether.net/docs/developers.

Filing a bug

Please create a topic in the appropriate section of meta.getaether.net. This allows the non-Github-using majority of Aether users to help with your issue, and point you in the right direction.
