Request for ARM Linux version

Post by Cluster »

Hello!

First of all, thank you for developing XnView — it's a fantastic and very useful application.

I would like to ask if it would be possible to provide a version of XnView for ARM Linux. ARM-based devices are becoming increasingly common, especially with platforms such as Raspberry Pi, portable Linux computers, gaming consoles, and various single-board computers.

Many of these devices run standard Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, etc.), but currently there are very few good image viewers available for ARM systems. XnView would be extremely useful in this ecosystem.

Typical ARM Linux devices include:
  • Raspberry Pi and similar SBCs
  • portable Linux computers (for example uConsole and similar devices)
  • ARM-based gaming consoles
  • various embedded and low-power Linux systems
Since Linux on ARM is growing quickly, having an official ARM build of XnView would be very valuable for this community.

Thank you for considering this request!
