Hello Genodians,
I'm proud to announce the release of Genode-based Sculpt OS 23.04.
https://genode.org/news/sculpt-os-release-23.04
Today's release marks the first-time PinePhone support in addition to the PC version. We added two key features to Genode during the past months, which are the phone-oriented Sculpt user-interface variant and the system-update functionality. With these tools at hand, Sculpt versions can be switched by three easy steps directly in the integrated user interface: downloading system images to the software depot, install the desired version on the boot medium, and reboot the device.
Further, the release supports so-called presets in the system menu UI, which are entire runtime scenarios. The user can load and switch between presets by just one click. Presets currently available in Sculpt are a simple GUI demo (nano3d), a simple desktop including background picture and window manager, and a ready to use Falkon web browser. Still, components can be integrated into the system (or the currently running preset) by the + menu of the component graph.
As usual, the starting point is a ready-to-use disk image at the Sculpt download page.
