Nitrocid 0.1.0.x and 0.2.0.x for ARM64 is now available on WinGet!
Last month, we have announced the availability of Nitrocid 0.1.0.x and 0.2.0.x for the traditional AMD64 Windows systems with WinGet as the installation method. This made the installation of Nitrocid easier and smoother without having to install a separate package manager or to manually go to our GitHub.
Now, we are very excited to announce that we have made a significant progress regarding the packaging of Nitrocid 0.1.0.x and 0.2.0.x for ARM64 systems. Starting from today, you can now install Nitrocid 0.1.0.x and 0.2.0.x on ARM64 systems with WinGet!
Snapdragon X and other Windows systems that use ARM64 as the processor architecture can now experience the same smooth installation flow, which simplifies the installation experience, given that we understand that WinGet is shipped with Windows 11 these days.
You can install Nitrocid 0.2.0.x and 0.1.0.x using WinGet on ARM64 systems using the following commands:
- Nitrocid 0.2.0.x:
winget install Aptivi.Nitrocid.0.2.0.x - Nitrocid 0.1.0.x:
winget install Aptivi.Nitrocid.0.1.0.x
The documentation will be updated shortly to reflect the status of Nitrocid’s WinGet packages as a new installation method.
Please note that the updated packages may not be always available, and updates can take from a minimum of few hours to a maximum of few days to propagate, depending on the version being distributed.

Nitrocid 0.1.2 has officially become EOL
Nitrocid 0.1.2, which was released on February 2025, has ended its official support as of February 12th of this year. When Nitrocid 0.2.0 gets released, this means that we have ended support for Nitrocid 0.1.2 as we move forward.
Nitrocid 0.1.2 provided more features, such as SMultivar, Pomodoro timer, commands, and much more, alongside many improvements that were shipped with this version of the simulator. It was a third major release for the 0.1.x version series that came after 0.1.1 and 0.1.0.
If you want to continue getting official support, consider these two methods:
- Upgrade to Nitrocid 0.2.0, taking breaking changes into account.
- Downgrade to Nitrocid 0.1.0, but with all updates applied, such as Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6.
Users who continue using Nitrocid 0.1.2 will no longer get official support, and updates will officially end at version 0.1.2.33. This means that no security updates will be made for this version.

Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6 announcement
The release of Nitrocid 0.2.0 has just happened, but all of that is not enough for this huge milestone.
Today, we are announcing the availability of the sixth service pack of Nitrocid 0.1.0! This service pack is not a small collection of bug fixes, but it’s a massive transformation!
We have integrated all features of 0.1.2, especially the best features that made it to that version when we first released it! This was done as part of our plan to make continuity possible with the addition of all the features from that version, with our promise that bug fixes related to those features will be made.
Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6 is now available, but we’ll need to remind you of the hot features that Nitrocid 0.1.2 provided.
Modern design
Nitrocid KS 0.1.2 used Terminaux 6.1 to provide you with a modern design that aligns with today’s standards. This service pack uses Terminaux 8.1 to integrate many improvements made to ensure that you get the speediest experience yet. Instead of using non-curved rectangles in borders, we’ve used the curved borders in rectangles to make every single interactive TUI, be it The Nitrocid Homepage or the interactive settings TUI, more attractive than before. This uses the appropriate Unicode character set to render those curved corners.
More TUIs
We have added more interactive TUIs that allow you to use your favorite things more easily, such as the following interactives:
- FTP
- SFTP
- Mail manager
- Mod manager
In addition to that, we’ve made improvements to the existing TUIs, such as the live timezones that refresh every second in the left selection pane. TUIs will continue to be improved in future Nitrocid and Terminaux releases as they closely interface with each other.
Packaging improvements
We had introduced the Windows Installer, powered by the WiX 5.x toolset, as we are making experiences more intuitive during the development of 0.1.2. In addition to that, we had introduced support for PKGBUILD files, and they’re available in the Arch Linux AUR. Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6 continues to offer both the Windows Installer package for Windows users and the Arch Linux AUR package that you can install with your AUR helper in an Arch Linux installation.
Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6 is now available for download. Try it out today; we’re open to feedback!

Nitrocid 0.2.0 – Attractive, Bold, Powerful
Since Nitrocid 0.0.1 (Kernel Simulator back then), we have been constantly making it closer to what we have today as an operating system simulator built on textual user interface, along with the command-line interface backed by the shell that executes commands. Celebrating the eighth year anniversary of Nitrocid, including the most important transformation point that is 0.1.0 released March 2024, we are very excited to announce that we have taken things further.
When we were working on 0.1.0, we were focusing on the kernel itself, along with a few enhancements being made to various components, including the addition of the addon system. Since then, we have introduced you to The Nitrocid Homepage with 0.1.1 on July to provide you with a hub, the first thing you see when you sign in to your Nitrocid user. Additionally, we have released 0.1.2 last February to modernize the design and to provide more improvements in different areas of the simulated system.
Let’s make the huge milestone of a day even bigger by introducing you to one of the biggest events, along with the completion of the rebrand plan, which is…
Nitrocid 0.2.0!
Welcome to the brand new, bold, attractive Nitrocid! After our hard work that was poured in both the technical preview and the release candidate, we have finally come to the reimagined appearance and design of Nitrocid! After nearly a year of development, we have finally reached this milestone, with many exciting changes that have been made to Nitrocid!
The redesign has not only affected the home screen, but we’ve also made this redesign in both the login screen and the default splash screen! We’ve also made sure that the transition becomes smoother between these screens!
We will go through a super-quick list of key features in this version, before leaving the rest of the features as an exercise for you to discover!
Widget Canvas JSON
From build system improvements made in early 2025 to the separation of the Nitrocid executable to two parts (Nitrocid.Base and Nitrocid.Core), we have made a wide assortment of new features, and one of the biggest features that we’ll be introducing you to here is Widget Canvas JSON!
The Widget Canvas JSON feature is not only available in The Nitrocid Homepage, but we’ve also made it available in the modern logon screen, which is configured to be the default logon screen in new installations. Starting from Nitrocid 0.2.0, we’ve opened new doors to custom pages for both of the screens. Not only that, but you can create an unlimited number of pages that are rendered with widgets at their core!
To take customization further, you can use custom widgets that are provided by your mods, which makes your kernel configurable to your heart’s content! Kernel mods were part of the kernel since 0.0.5 released on September 2018. Since then, they became stronger by making them being able to access all public APIs, further enhanced by the inter-addon and inter-mod communication facilities!
Two-factor authentication
When it comes to user account security, we’ve added two-factor authentication support, which is implemented with a standard that is compatible with many major authenticator, such as Google Authenticator. Users with a password can be enrolled to this requirement, and phone users are taken into account by printing the QR code to the console, which quickly imports the setup key to the authenticator.
From now on, if you activate the requirement, you’ll need to provide the 6-digit code provided to you by the authenticator, in addition to the password.
Localization and Terminaux
During the development of 0.2.0, we’ve also released Terminaux 7.0, 8.0, and 8.1 and used them consecutively in tech preview (which used 7.0) and in release candidate (which used 8.0). This caused many improvements related to both performance and stability to land to the kernel, creating an ultimate experience that we’re looking forward for, complete with improved mouse support in Terminaux 8.1! Now, interactive TUIs have become more responsive than before!
One final thing to say is that we have migrated the whole localization system to use built-in .NET string resources that used culture specifiers. This, alone, made the localization feature in Nitrocid (that was part of the kernel since 0.0.6) more reliable than never before, by using localization IDs instead of text strings alone to distinguish different localizations from each other.

Reviving old Nitrocid Documentation
While we are gathering information about how we plan to finalize the documentation for the upcoming Nitrocid release, we’ve discovered an interesting way to revive the old Nitrocid documentation. Before we get into details into how we did it, here’s some background information about the original Nitrocid documentation.
When version 0.0.6 was still in development, we did it as part of the executable using embedded resources. You can see the resultant “manual page” files here, before the migration to GitHub Wiki started at around 2019 before the release of 0.0.8. The documentation then stayed on GitHub Wiki until 2022, when we had planned to move the docs to DocFX during the development of 0.0.23.x.
However, during development of 0.0.24.x, we’ve discovered that the documentation needed a rework, and that libraries at the time had no documentation. The only documentation that was provided at the time was the API docs, and that, in our opinion, wasn’t enough, because the API docs don’t usually provide detailed information about the functionality of the library.
So, when 2023 started, we’ve begun a project that focuses on a complete rewrite of the Nitrocid documentation, which was part of our plan of the Nitrocid 0.1.0 release. During the beta release, we’ve brought the GitBook documentation online. That was after careful choosing of the documentation frameworks: whether to continue using DocFX or to switch to another doc framework (GitBook, Read The Docs, etc.) was our question.
Modernity of our docs and simplification of our workflow was our requirements, and GitBook has been carefully chosen after considering its capabilities. The current GitBook documentation can be found here. This migration has caused us to shut down the Wiki section in our GitHub as we were telling people that the migration was done.
Fast forward to today, as we no longer have backups of the old wiki for versions 0.0.23.x and older, we’ve decided to run a Git clone on the Wiki repository of Nitrocid to check to see if we can fetch them. Here’s the command:
$ git clone https://github.com/Aptivi/Nitrocid.wiki.gitInstead of getting an error or getting an empty repository, we got a full history of the wiki that was active from 2019 to 2022. This gave us a brand new project to do during the “Final Touches” stage of 0.2.0 as part of the documentation preservation project under the Archived Manuals GitHub organization, making February 12th the biggest milestone yet.
We will study the structure of the commits and release archived documentation under GitBook when each version is discovered. This release is going to be asynchronous to the 0.2.0 release plan.
We have learned that when you disable the Wiki on GitHub, the repository that contains the wiki itself won’t be deleted. For example, deactivating Nitrocid’s Wiki section on GitHub won’t remove the
Nitrocid.wiki.gitrepository. Therefore, this is done on purpose to make restoration easier, in case you ever want to turn the Wiki section back on.To clone the wiki repository when the Wiki section is disabled, just run this command:
$ git clone https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>.wiki.gitYou can interact with it just like any other Git repository.

Final reminder for Nitrocid 0.1.2 EOL
As Nitrocid 0.2.0 becomes closer to the final release, we’re here to remind you that Nitrocid 0.1.2, which was released on February 2025, will end its official support on February 12th of this year. When Nitrocid 0.2.0 gets released, this means that we have ended support for Nitrocid 0.1.2 as we move forward.
Nitrocid 0.1.2 provided more features, such as SMultivar, Pomodoro timer, commands, and much more, alongside many improvements that were shipped with this version of the simulator. It was a third major release for the 0.1.x version series that came after 0.1.1 and 0.1.0.
If you want to continue getting official support, consider these two methods:
- Upgrade to Nitrocid 0.2.0, taking breaking changes into account.
- Downgrade to Nitrocid 0.1.0, but with all updates applied, such as Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 6.
Users who continue using Nitrocid 0.1.2 will no longer get official support, and updates will officially end at version 0.1.2.33. This means that no security updates will be made for this version.

Nitrocid 0.2.0 has entered the final touches stage!
Nitrocid 0.2.0, which is an anticipated release of the next major version of Nitrocid after v0.1.0 version series that provides a plethora of improvements and new features, has finally entered the “Final Touches” stage! We are very close to the final release of Nitrocid 0.2.0 and Terminaux 8.1, while the latter comes after to tomorrow! We are very excited to have moved forward to this level, because without Terminaux, none of this would have been possible.
Nitrocid 0.2.0 has one goal: to make the user interface more useful and more modern with the help of the new features that Terminaux 7.0, 8.0, and 8.1 provided. The development of 0.1.3 had introduced a shift that led to the release of the technical preview of 0.2.0, which provided the “core” of the release. Since then, the release candidate focused on adding new features while providing existing improvements, and the final release finishes the mission of being feature-complete. The release candidate now looks like this:
We believe in transparency, so we’ve provided the live release plan project that is available on GitHub as per this link.
The final touches stage starts today, and we’re working on fixing as many bugs as possible to ensure that we release 0.2.0 in the cleanest way possible!
We are still firm on the release date, and it’s February 12th, assuming that things go smoothly when the final updates and bug fixes are done to the final release. In the past announcements of Nitrocid 0.2.0, we announced the date several times, and it felt far. Now, it’s getting closer and closer as we’re maintaining the final touches to Nitrocid 0.2.0 and finalizing its changelogs, which is expected to be done by the end of January.
We will not move the date forward to ensure that many last-minute bugs are fixed, especially due to the breaking nature that Terminaux 8.1 provides over Terminaux 8.0.

Get Ready for Nitrocid 0.2.0!
We have been working on Nitrocid 0.2.0 since early February of the last year, when we were planning to release it as 0.1.3, which was another patch release on top of the 0.1.0 series. Changes made to the kernel and to the build system led to changing the plan for the release to 0.2.0, which will be released on February 12th.
Right now, we are at the last few stages for this version of Nitrocid, which means that we are now preparing for the final release to make sure that any last-minute bug are caught. This has now become a priority to make a gateway towards the stable final release, which will be worked on.
Here are some of the features that will make it to the final release of Nitrocid 0.2.0:
Terminaux 8.1
In the tech preview release of Nitrocid 0.2.0, we were fixated on making sure that the latest version of Terminaux was used. Our plan went fine, so we went ahead to create Terminaux 8.0 for the release candidate and Terminaux 8.1 for the final release. While Terminaux 8.1 still didn’t get released, we are just a few days away from releasing it, making sure that Nitrocid 0.2.0 gets released with this version of Terminaux.
This incorporates major improvements that happened between Terminaux 6.1 and 8.1, from performance enhancements and rendering improvements to API cleanups and input system refinements. All of this were important for Nitrocid 0.2.0, and this version wouldn’t have happened without Terminaux 7.0, 8.0, and 8.1.
Widget Canvas
Widget canvas is now available in both your login screen and your home screen, which lets you make infinite number of pages of widgets to get more information effortlessly. Signing in to your Nitrocid account is not required to obtain this amount of information, so you can take a look at more than just date and time.
Widgets have also been improved with support for a variety of widgets, including RSS feeds, date, time, decorative widgets like text, and custom widgets that your mods use. This takes customization, along with a redesigned The Nitrocid Homepage, to a whole new level.
Two-factor authentication
Additionally, Nitrocid 0.2.0 now lets users set up two-factor authentication to install an extra layer of security to the user. This allows users to set up a second login factor so that they get prompted for the six-digit PIN each time they sign in to their user account, provided that they’ve logged in with the correct password.
The implementation of the two-factor authentication feature supports major authentication apps, such as Google Authenticator and Authy, and you can easily generate QR code for you to be able to set it up right from your phone, whether it’s running Android or iOS.
Many more
There are many more features that were added to Nitrocid 0.2.0, and we are awaiting the day of the release to excite you with the huge milestone that’s going to define the history of Nitrocid!

Nitrocid 0.2.0 will let you add and edit contacts!
We are currently working on the next generation version of Nitrocid KS, and introducing features to this version of Nitrocid is something that we’re working on in preparation for the release candidate, which is expected to come as early as December 25th, 2025 and as late as the last week of January 2026. We are fully confident that the release candidate will excite you by introducing a whole new set of features that will truly make Nitrocid KS in your style.
One of those features that we’re working on is the ability to add and edit the contacts. The contacts manager TUI has earned a new feature that supports adding and editing the contacts, and it makes your job easier than never before. Before, it was a read-write yellow pages for your contact numbers, just like shown below:
In the 0.1.0 version of Nitrocid, there was a way to import contacts, but there was no way to directly add new contacts and edit existing contacts within this TUI. VisualCard, back then, didn’t support adding and editing card items. Now, we’ll utilize all the VisualCard features to support this feature, just like your regular contacts app on your phone.
Starting from 0.2.0, you can add a new contact by pressing A in the main screen of the contacts TUI. From there, a new contact will be made and an infobox will open, allowing you to perform edits on the brand new contact. You can add new information, edit them, and delete them. You can also edit existing contacts by pressing F11 on a contact you wish to edit, as well as F12 to save the contacts list.
For convenience, we’ve added automatic saving for your contacts when confirming the edits on any of the contacts, including addition, editing, and removal. This makes sure that you don’t hesitate to exit the contacts manager immediately after you edit one of the contacts.
The release candidate of Nitrocid 0.2.0 will be released in the abovementioned date range.

Nitrocid meets .NET 10.0!
.NET 10.0 is now live this week, and we are in the process of migrating Nitrocid to this version of the framework. This makes Nitrocid benefit from new features and many more improvements that make this program better than ever. This migration is important to shape up the next generation of Nitrocid that will succeed the API versions v3.0 and v3.1.
We have migrated the main branch of Nitrocid KS to this version of .NET in preparation for the final release, and this main branch tracks this next generation version that will be released early next year. However, this may be too much for the mod authors who aren’t ready to migrate to .NET 10.0 yet.
We feel it, so we’ve decided to create a new version of Nitrocid 0.1.0.x and 0.1.2.x that will upgrade the codebase to .NET 10.0 while fixing test-related bugs and issues along the way. This is to let the mod authors get the time to migrate their mods to .NET 10.0 before we release the next generation Nitrocid KS.
You will be able to take advantage of .NET 10.0 features that are introduced, such as the new C# 14.
The new versions are currently pending release, and we are awaiting the .NET 10.0 packages to land to the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat or later (#2130891) for the Nitrocid KS Ubuntu PPA, with no estimated timeline as to when. Once they get released, we will release those versions.

Nitrocid KS 0.1.2.x EOL reminder
Seven months ago, Nitrocid KS 0.1.2 was released on February 27th to introduce you to brand new and hot features that made it exciting to use, such as the audio cues, the customizable widget in The Nitrocid Homepage, and various new screensavers and commands. Since then, several patches have been released, including the first and the second service packs.
We have debuted this version of Nitrocid KS after three months of development, and we were successful in backporting some of the features that originally appeared there to the supported series, such as the Arch Linux and the Windows Installer packaging.
Yesterday, we have released the last patch version of the 0.1.2.x series under the v0.1.2.26 version as a response to our migration of the project operations back to GitHub. This was essential as we also had to do the same thing to Terminaux under all supported series.
We are announcing that all official support will stop on November 27th, 2025. However, there are no newer version series other than the next-generation one, which is still in development. This means that you can revert back to v0.1.0 series once we port all its features from the v0.1.2 series by the EOL date with a service pack release expected in two months.
When v0.1.2 is EOL, you have two options:
- Revert back to v0.1.0 version series, but after we release the sixth service pack.
- Try out the tech preview of v0.2.0 until the final release expected February 2026.
Meanwhile, all development on both v0.1.2 and v0.1.0 will stop as we shift our focus to v0.2.0 to minimize friction, delays, and conflicts. This freeze will take place until November 27th, where all maintenance releases will continue in a slower pace than usual. Security updates are an exception, though, because we have security as the first priority.

Development of Nitrocid 0.2.0 starts!
The official development of Nitrocid 0.2.0 didn’t start officially, and we were preparing for Terminaux 7.0, which we’ve released to empower the fastest implementation of the terminal library yet, while being full of useful features. We are very excited to announce that the official development of Nitrocid KS 0.2.0 has really started.
Nitrocid KS 0.2.0 will bring many features that will completely transform the user experience in ways that you’ve never seen before. Improvements will also land to the final release to reduce the number of bugs and to integrate several improvements to different areas.
Nitrocid KS 0.2.0 will be released early next year, if everything goes well, with the only release candidate expected in January of the next year. We are grateful that we’ve opened the source of Nitrocid KS for developers to test the current state of the v0.2.0 and to report bugs and feature suggestions.
Please note that we now require Visual Studio 2026 Insiders and .NET 10.0 RC1 SDK to build Nitrocid KS 0.2.0.

Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 5 and 0.1.2 Service Pack 2 released!
We are finally excited to announce two service pack versions of Nitrocid KS after a long time, and those versions upgrade 0.1.0.x to the fifth service pack with some improvements regarding the splash, while also upgrading the 0.1.2.x series to the second (and the last) service pack that brings in quality of life improvements.
Today, we are excited to announce their availability under the 0.1.0.59 and the 0.1.2.25 versions, which can be downloaded in their own section here. The development of 0.2.0 didn’t start yet, but we are in the process of starting it up as we shift our plans to the next-gen version, with no specific ETA for the development start. However, we promise that 0.2.0 will be the biggest release series after the 0.1.0.x series that started in March 2024.
Nitrocid 0.1.0 Service Pack 5
The fifth service pack of 0.1.0 is under the 0.1.0.59 version, further enhanced by the 0.1.0.60 version we’ve released yesterday to update the OpenMoji emoticons from version 15.0 to 16.0 as you can see here. It brings in updated emoji icons, alongside newly added icons.
The fifth service pack contains the following changes:
- Made
SetCursor*()functions modifiable - Fixed splash closing
- Backported improvements from 0.1.2 for games
- Help shows usages in command list
This makes your user experience more natural and intuitive tha before, but, in the next service pack, it’s going to be quite huge in regards to changes, and the reasons are explained in the second service pack of 0.1.2.x.
You can download Nitrocid 0.1.0.60 here.
Download Nitrocid 0.1.0.60 API DocumentationNitrocid 0.1.2 Service Pack 2
As you can see, the Nitrocid 0.1.2.x version series has a new addition today, and that resembles the second service pack of this series, with 0.1.2.25 as the version. This version of Nitrocid brings the most important change, and we’ll explain it briefly below.
Terminaux 7.0 was released this August to bring many improvements in different areas of the library, including rendering images that became faster, making infoboxes that became more flexible, and managing shells that became more powerful than ever. Nitrocid 0.2.0 Tech Preview used Terminaux 7.0 to demonstrate those improvements with the necessary code refactors needed to align with the requirements.
We are excited to announce that Nitrocid 0.1.2 now uses Terminaux 7.0, and this dependency will be moved over to 0.1.0 as Nitrocid 0.1.2 becomes EOL in the middle of November. As a separate note, Terminaux 5.4.x will become EOL this September.
You can download Nitrocid 0.1.2.25 here.

The Future of Nitrocid KS in 2026
We are informing you that Nitrocid KS is going through many advancements, such as API changes and appearance changes. The final release of the fourth API generation, which Nitrocid v0.2.0 uses, will consist of many exciting features that will be added during development.
Many new features will be added to the kernel and to the shell to enhance your productivity, as well as new commands and UIs. We are constantly working on features to enhance them so that you can be more productive than never before. The UESH shell has been moved to Terminaux 7.0 since Tech Preview to allow other applications to experience the power of Nitrocid’s shell features that used to be exclusive to Nitrocid only.
While Nitrocid 0.1.0 brought a truckload of features and improvements, we felt that, even after we spent a year and a half on working on this version, those changes weren’t enough. Nitrocid 0.2.0 and future major versions aim to change this by introducing even more changes and enhancements. The tech preview of v0.2.0 encourages you to try out the technical aspect of the future version of Nitrocid.
Nitrocid 0.2.0 will only go through one release candidate before the official release so that we can gather feedback about the new features and enhancements we’ve introduced in this version. Those include new commands, new addons, and new screensavers, in addition to the upcoming attractive look and feel in both the lock and the home screens.
Additionally, we’ll be celebrating eight years of anniversary with two themes that use the following elements:
- Nitrocid logo colors used in 2021
- Nitrocid logo colors used in 2022
The very first version of Nitrocid was released on February 22nd, 2018. Since then, it has been quickly expanded to a powerful powerhouse of a simulated kernel in just six years!
The development of 0.2.0 will start around the beginning of September, with the exact dates unknown.

Nitrocid 0.2.0 Tech Preview Announcement
The tech preview for the upcoming version of Nitrocid 0.2.0 is now globally available! We are very excited to announce the availability of this version after the big release of the second point release of the 0.1.x release series!
It contains all the changes that were made since the beginning of this year, which revolutionized the whole build system, as well as focusing on the major API changes, including the merger to the new Nitrocid library that every single mod can make use of, which is Nitrocid.Base. Currently, the .Base library contains basically the entire kernel and its APIs, except the real entry point, which is confined to the executable file that launches the kernel using the .Base library.
Additionally, we’ve incorporated some of the biggest improvements to both the build system and the general kernel. However, we are announcing one biggest change that was made to the whole Nitrocid kernel.
Nitrocid 0.2.0 will officially use the latest Terminaux 7.0 version series! Terminaux 7.0 was released on August 10th to bring many major feature additions and to present many general improvements. To learn more about Terminaux 7.0, consult the below link.
Announcement pageNitrocid 0.2.0 Tech Preview will showcase the technical aspects of what will Nitrocid 0.2.0 look like when released early next year. We mean by technical aspects the APIs, the addons, and many internal improvements. This is a good entry point to the huge amount of features that will make it to the final release.
We are also very thrilled to announce that Nitrocid 0.2.0 Tech Preview includes the Chatbot AI by default, which is powered by ChatGPT with the official OpenAI library. This application can be easily launched from your main Nitrocid shell using the
chatbotcommand, and it is installed as an addon instead of part of the kernel.What are you waiting for? Get Nitrocid 0.2.0 Tech Preview today by checking the links here!

Nitrocid 0.1.0.52 and 0.1.2.17 released with reduced distribution size!
Earlier versions of Nitrocid that followed the Unicode Bidi updates had a significantly increased size due to the inclusion of the Unicode libraries that were required to properly function on Windows systems. Also, they contained a version of Terminaux that included six copies of the same emoji icons, which turned out to be useless in the terminal context.
So, to reduce the distribution size, we’ve introduced new ways to implement this change. We’ve kept only the standard size of both the black-n-white version and the regular version, and removed the rest. This reduced the package size of the icons package from 70.61 MB until Terminaux 6.1.14 to just 8.27 MB starting from Terminaux 6.1.15. Also, in Textify, we’ve reduced the package size from 59.81 MB to just 34.22 MB, starting from Textify 2.11.0.
Now, we are proud to announce that Nitrocid has been updated to versions 0.1.2.17 and 0.1.0.52 to reduce the total distribution size, as well as bringing some of the general improvements that were introduced in later versions of Textify and Terminaux. Here’s the comparison of between the two releases:
Version seriesSize fromSize to0.1.0.51 -> 0.1.0.52784 MB (full)

-482 MB (f) [-61.4%]
-87 MB (l) [-33.9%]
-395 MB (a) [-74.8%]This is quite a significant reduction of the distribution when addons are involved, because one of the addons contained the Terminaux.Images.Icons package that witnessed a significant reduction of the size as a result of our recent actions.

Nitrocid Hotfix Release Announcement
As part of our tests, we’ve discovered some hidden code in one of the dependencies that caused an essential part of the kernel to crash silently. It involved the kernel config validation code that used the JSON schema to determine whether the configuration is valid or not. We had used
Newtonsoft.Json.Schemaas a library because we had trustedNewtonsoft.Jsonand all the hard work behind it.Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as we had expected. During the development cycle of Nitrocid 0.1.0.50, we had encountered a behavior that didn’t match our goals for the system stability. It was basically impossible to fix other than removing the dependency.
We have released new versions of Nitrocid across all supported series to fix this problem by temporarily introducing the manual verification code while other options become available. We take security of our users very seriously, and we will scan all dependencies across all projects for similar behavior.
We will continue to use
Newtonsoft.Jsonin our projects after this discovery.#KernelSimulator #KS #news #nitrocid #NitrocidKernel #NitrocidKernelSimulator #NitrocidKS #NitrocidKS #Tech #Technology #update
