With the new version, we pursue the gradual +transition from a text-based user interface to a graphical user interface for +most administrative tasks while preserving the text-based interface for +full flexibility. The central element of the new user interface is a live view +of the current system composition and the relationships between components. +The live view is accompanied with a convenient graphical user interface for +adding and removing components. + +The new version is available as a ready-to-use disk image. The updated +documentation covers everything from a quick-start guide, over a high-level +description of the architecture, to advanced topics like Sculpt's manifold +customization opportunities. + +[https://genode.org/download/sculpt - Download Sculpt OS...] + + Genode OS Framework release 18.08 | 2018-08-30 ##############################################
