Download & Install

Packaging status

Download

GoldenDict-ng is available pre-built for Windows and macOS. It is available in a few Linux/Unix repos and FlatHub.

Because it is open source, you can always build it for yourself.

Windows

Choose either

  • ****-installer.exe for traditional installer experience
  • ****-installer.7z for simply unzip and run experience

If Qt's version is not changed, you can also download a single goldendict.exe and drop it into previous installation's folder (If uncertain, don't do this).

Requires Windows 10 (1809 or later).

Linux

Download on Flathub

  • See the right side for available packages in various Linux distros.
  • In Debian 12 and Ubuntu 23.04, goldendict-webengine is available (For later versions it is goldendict-ng).
  • For ArchLinux, pre-built binary is available from archlinuxcn's repo.
  • Gentoo package from PG_Overlay

Minimum supported "Linux" version is supposedly the current Ubuntu LTS and Debian's oldstable.

macOS

Uses one of the .dmg installers in the Download.

Requires at least macOS 13.

Versioning and Releasing

This project uses Calendar Versioning: YY.MM.Patch.

Releases will tentatively be done twice a year, considering factors like the major releases of Qt and the package freeze dates of Linux distros like Ubuntu.
