After a long and frustrating detour in making Julia desktop application bundling a smooth experience with AppBundler.jl, I am excited to release the PeaceFounder client for all major desktop platforms - Windows, Linux and MacOS for x64 and arm64 architectures.

The MacOS bundles are now precompiled with respect to the /Applications/PeaceFounder location and feature a polished standard dmg installer, providing a smooth experience. On Linux, the application can be installed with snap install --classic --dangerous peacefounder-0.0.2-x86.snap, which runs precompilation just after installation. On Windows, the precompilation runs during the first run, which can take a minute, depending on your system's performance. This hopefully will be resolved starting with the Julia 1.11 cache relocability fix; let's wait a little.

At the moment, I am not in a position to maintain rather expensive code-signing certificates on Windows and MacOS, and those archives are self-signed. Follow these instructions for Windows on how to add a third-party code signing certificate..
