Note for macOS users: if you're using macOS 10.14(Mojave) or newer, please use the according version. The macOS 10.13 build is buggy on 10.14 or newer.

This is a release from the development branch, like nightly builds(but not exactly). Binaries in this release page may be updated without any prior notifications, but backups will be provided once we update them, in case of serious regressions.

Note that this isn't a beta or release candidate, so there are no stability or compatibility guarantees. In other words crashes may happen, and in the worst case scenario your project files may break.
Also, some features may be added or removed before betas or stable releases.

Git commit for each binary releases are as follows:
