Aura 0.3 is a technical preview with this supported distribution matrix:
| Host | Architecture | CI | Release archive | Native aura build |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ubuntu 24.04 / compatible glibc Linux | x86-64 | Yes | Yes | Yes, with a host C compiler |
| macOS 15 | x86-64 | Release smoke | Yes | Yes, with Xcode command-line tools |
| macOS 15 | Apple silicon | Yes | Yes | Yes, with Xcode command-line tools |
| Windows 11 with WSL 2 and Ubuntu 24.04 | x86-64 | Linux behavior inherited; no dedicated WSL runner | Use the Linux archive inside WSL | Yes, with build-essential inside WSL |
Aura does not publish a native Windows executable. The documented Windows path runs the Linux x86-64 archive inside WSL 2. Native Windows, Windows on ARM, musl Linux, cross-compilation, and other architectures are not supported by the 0.3 preview archives. Source builds on those hosts are experimental until they have CI, runtime-link manifests, and packaged-archive smoke tests.
The pinned development toolchain is Rust 1.95.0, Cargo LLVM coverage 0.8.4, Node.js 22.14.0, and npm 11.4.2. See rust-toolchain.toml and package.json.
