x64 installer12.0 MB arm64 installer11.3 MB

Linux

GTK 3 desktop, built on Ubuntu 22.04. The .deb needs libgtk-3-0, libblkid1 and liblzma5.

AppImage — x86_6411.7 MB AppImage — aarch6411.3 MB .deb — amd649.4 MB .deb — arm649.0 MB

Every asset, for this and every earlier version, is on the GitHub releases page.

First launch

The builds are not code-signed yet

Code-signing certificates cost money that a free tool does not make, so each platform needs one extra step the first time. Nothing about this is unusual for an unsigned open-source app — and every release publishes a checksums.txt so you can verify exactly what you downloaded.

macOS

Drag Kruftle to Applications, then clear the quarantine flag Gatekeeper set when your browser downloaded it:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Kruftle.app

Windows

SmartScreen will offer to block the installer. Choose More info, then Run anyway.

Linux

The AppImage needs its executable bit; the .deb installs normally.

chmod +x Kruftle-0.2.11-x86_64.AppImage
./Kruftle-0.2.11-x86_64.AppImage

# or
sudo dpkg -i Kruftle-0.2.11-amd64.deb

Verifying a download

checksums.txt lists the SHA-256 of every asset in the release. The in-app updater refuses to install anything whose hash is not listed there, and you can do the same check by hand:

shasum -a 256 Kruftle-0.2.11-macos.dmg        # macOS
sha256sum Kruftle-0.2.11-amd64.deb           # Linux
certutil -hashfile Kruftle-0.2.11-windows-x64-setup.exe SHA256   # Windows

Requirements

What Kruftle needs from your machine

Platform	Minimum	Architectures	Format
macOS	10.15 Catalina	Apple silicon + Intel (universal)	`.dmg`
Windows	Windows 10	x64, arm64	Inno Setup `.exe`
Linux	GTK 3 desktop	x86_64, aarch64	`.AppImage`, `.deb`

No administrator rights, and no toolchains required. Kruftle runs as you and touches only paths you could touch yourself. It uses whichever build tools you already have on your PATH; projects whose SDK is missing are flagged rather than assumed.

Building it yourself

Kruftle is a Flutter desktop app. The whole build is:

git clone https://github.com/dizitart/kruftle.git
cd kruftle
flutter pub get
flutter test
flutter run -d macos   # or -d windows, -d linux
