Nope - this is just a fun little experiment. The other thing is waaaay more exciting!

I talked about how I then built a system called bleep with the University of Sheffield in Elixir and Lua and now I’m working on Tau5 which has a focus on collaboration.

Thanks for your enthusiasm and for trying though. I wish things were easier.

With Tau5 I’m planning on providing an AppImage release. Would that work for you on your distro?

This post is a perfect example of why there isn’t a “Linux” release of Sonic Pi.

Unfortunately there are so many distros with subtly different packages, configurations and expectations.

I tried my best to make building from source as easy as possible but ultimately we need package maintainers.

Weird that my cmake doesn’t have a problem with ARM64 in caps. Thanks for the heads up though.
