Firestorm is a free client for 3D virtual worlds such as Second Life and various OpenSim worlds where users can create, connect and chat with others from around the world.
This repository contains the official source code for the Firestorm viewer.
Open Source
Firestorm is a third party viewer derived from the official Second Life client. The client codebase has been open source since 2007 and is available under the LGPL license.
Download
Pre-built versions of the viewer releases for Windows, Mac and Linux can be downloaded from the official website.
Build Instructions
Build instructions for each operating system can be found using the links below and in the official wiki.
Note
We do not provide support for compiling the viewer or issues resulting from using a self-compiled viewer. However, there is a self-compilers group within Second Life that can be joined to ask questions related to compiling the viewer: Firestorm Self Compilers
Contribute
Help make Firestorm better! You can get involved with improvements by filing bugs and suggesting enhancements via JIRA or creating pull requests.
Community respect
This section is guided by the TPV Policy and the Second Life Code of Conduct.
Firestorm code is made available during ongoing development, with the master branch representing the current nightly build. Developers and self-compilers are encouraged to work on their own forks and contribute back via pull requests, as detailed in the contributing guide.
If you intend to use our code for your own viewer beyond personal use, please only use code from official release branches (for example, Firestorm_7.1.13), rather than from pre-release/preview or nightly builds.
