By default, `./release.sh` now builds only the current host OS/architecture. On this Ubuntu 24.04 `amd64` host that means `linux/amd64`.
By default, `./release.sh` builds all six OS/architecture combinations:
## Optional cross-target builds
- macOS (`darwin`): `amd64` and `arm64`
- Linux: `amd64` and `arm64`
- Windows: `amd64` and `arm64`
The release scripts disable CGO and use a pure-Go SQLite driver, so Linux and Windows cross-targets no longer need C cross-compilers for the application backend. Request explicit targets with:
Go calls the x86-64 architecture `amd64` and the AArch64 architecture `arm64`.
On macOS, Linux builds run in architecture-matched Podman or Docker containers
because Wails does not cross-compile Linux applications directly from macOS.
The reusable builder images keep their `node_modules` separate from the host
checkout.
## Optional targeted builds
The release scripts disable CGO and use a pure-Go SQLite driver, so Linux and Windows cross-targets do not need C cross-compilers for the application backend. To build a smaller set, override the default targets:

## Platform caveats
- macOS targets cannot be cross-built from Linux with Wails. Build those on macOS.
- To produce all six targets in one run, use macOS with Podman or Docker running.
- macOS targets cannot be cross-built from Linux or Windows with Wails.
- Cross-target support still depends on Wails and frontend packaging support for the requested platform.
- Tested on Ubuntu 24.04 `amd64`: `linux/amd64` and `windows/amd64` build successfully.
