Common components that are shared with the Windows version of XIVLauncher are linked as a submodule in the "lib" folder. XIVLauncher Core can run on Windows, but is by far not as polished as the original Windows version, as such we are not distributing it.

Distribution

XIVLauncher Core has community packages for various Linux distributions. Please be aware that only the Flathub version is official, but the others are packaged by trusted community members. The community packages may not always be up-to-date, or may have versions that are broken or contain features under testing (especially if labeled as unstable or git). We can't take any responsibility for their safety or reliability.
