## Get Started

**maxDEV** is available for Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon, Intel), and Linux.

### Good to Know

#### Privacy First: Local and Offline Operation

All tools run locally on your machine. No tool-related data is transmitted to the internet. The only exception is **Sentry** integration for error tracking and reporting, which sends anonymized data without any personally identifiable information.

#### Update Policy

**Current approach**: maxDEV uses an **aggressive** update strategy - the application checks for updates at every launch and automatically downloads and installs them when available.

**Future approach**: Once the application becomes more stable, we'll switch to a **background** update strategy - the application will check for updates in the background and notify you when an update is available. You'll then have the choice to install or postpone the update.

#### Pricing Model

During the early access program, **maxDEV** is completely free. For the future, I'm considering a freemium model where core tools will be free, while premium features will require a payment.

> [!WARNING]
> EARLY ACCESS: **maxDEV** is currently in the early access phase. Features may be incomplete, contain bugs, or change significantly between releases.

> [!NOTE]
> This repository contains only release distributions of maxDEV, which is closed-source software. No source code is provided here, only installable packages for supported platforms.
