From @JustinProminic

Please make "Nightly" be the default in SDK Installer for Apache Royale.

Stable is too old and does not get updated enough.

I see the motivation behind this idea, but I'm not sure this solution will work well for us:

  • Moonshine SDK Installer will always show that the Nightly build needs to be downloaded again. To work around this, we could show this as "Installed" if there is any nightly build downloaded, and have a separate button to download the latest version.
  • We won't have a reference for which SDK is used if a user reports a bug for this. I suppose this is already a problem if users are always using nightly builds, though.

I think this is we already doing, accompany with a 're-download' button:

The 0.9.8 release is supposed to be ready in the next couple weeks, so this issue may be unneccessary.

We think Royale is close to 1.0, which would make this issue less necessary. This is a low priority for now, and we may close the issue after the Royale release.

@piotrzarzycki21 mentioned that Apache is pushing against using the Nightly builds for production applications. They have made it more difficult to access the nightly builds from the Downloads page.

These nightly builds are generated from our development branch, which means the distributions may not be fully functional and/or could contain bugs. We strongly recommend not to use this nightly builds in production environments.
