      @d-healey I'm looking at you. I do a fair amount of work on my Linux desktop, but never exported a plugin. I know nothing about plugin formats, installers, etc for this OS. What is your recommended process to export plugins and deliver binaries for this format?

        @Dan-Korneff I was using makeself for my installers, but I found it didn't always work how I expected across different distros so now I just deliver in a zip file.

        These days I only have to deliver Rhapsody because all my other stuff is installed through Rhapsody, so it's fairly straightforward. If you need the user to manually place things in the app data folder, like audio files, then I think that's too complex and an installer is the way to go.

        For plugin formats it's just VST3 (unless you have a VST2 license then you might as well go for that as well). If HISE gets an update to JUCE 7 then I think we will also get access to the CLAP and perhaps LV2.

          @d-healey JUCE 7 only added official support for LV2. CLAP support is not yet official. They also have yet to add any support for Wayland, which will become a problem soon - Linux DAWs are starting to consider Wayland support, as evidenced by PreSonus' beta release. VST3 GUIs straight up do not show up as of right now.
