About the project

Cataclysm is developer utility. The maintainers own the project, choose releases, and publish their own documentation. This page records a few things worth knowing before you begin.

Governance sits with the project's own team. They decide what ships, how often it ships, and which platforms are supported.

How releases reach a machine

There is no single universal route here. Maintainers usually describe the supported options themselves, and the choice varies between platforms and between releases.

Check compatibility first

It is worth checking which platforms the current release targets. Support windows differ, and the newest version is not always the one that fits an older machine.

A quick sanity check

A version query afterwards is usually enough to confirm the environment picked it up. If the result is unexpected, the usual causes are a stale path entry or a version manager resolving to a different release.

Notes on this domain

Nothing is published from this domain beyond text. Projects stay where their maintainers put them.
