Expect rough edges, and tell us what breaks. Your reports shape the next release.
Once installed, Silex Desktop can check for new signed releases and update itself. Auto-update is still stabilizing during the alpha, so if something looks off, downloading a fresh build from this page is the reliable path.
New stable releases are announced on Mastodon under #SilexRelease, with an RSS feed if you prefer.
An experimental on-device AI assistant is included, and more Desktop features are on the way.
Silex is free/libre software (AGPL) built by the Silex Labs non-profit. Funded by NLnet through the NGI0 Commons Fund (project 2025-10-133), with support from the European Commission's NGI programme.
