Announcement: Sculpt OS 23.04 released

[Christian Helmuth]

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.
