While you all know by now that you can keep your copy of Ultibo up to date by downloading the latest source and rebuilding it using some easy to follow steps, sometimes it is nice to have all the latest features and fixes available in a single download. To keep things simple we’ve just released the latest version of the Windows installer which comes complete with everything that’s been released up till now.

Of course with any new release there’s also the excitement of a few new features to try out and this one is no different, we’re making available the first working version of Ultibo support for the QEMU machine emulator so now you can begin to experiment with writing code and running it directly on your Windows computer without even needing a Raspberry Pi. A great way to test out ideas, learn about the Ultibo API or just tinker with your projects while you’re on the go.

The support for QEMU still needs some more improvement but we’ll continue adding to it as we go, there’s some great examples to show how to use some of the things we’ve added to Ultibo like virtual framebuffers for graphics animation plus the usual collection of enhancements, fixes and updates.

As always the latest installer is available from the download page, grab a copy now and start exploring.
