Pre-built binaries

Latest release v2026.8.23 · built 2026-08-23 · every archive carries a BUILDINFO with the exact compiler, flags and library versions

Pick the build that matches your platform. Each archive contains libstiles, the C header, a pkg-config file and a BUILDINFO record. Nothing else needs installing: the Linux builds embed their BLAS (MKL or OpenBLAS), and the macOS Intel and Windows builds ship their runtime libraries alongside.

The x86_64 builds need a CPU with AVX2 (Intel Haswell 2013+ / AMD Excavator+); the library reports this clearly rather than crashing if your machine is older.

PlatformDescription

Other builds. Each GitHub Release also carries variants for specific hardware and toolchains — newest GCC with x86-64-v3 code, ARM Performance Libraries for armv8.2 servers (Graviton2+, Ampere, Grace), and GCC-built macOS libraries for linking into GCC programs. The Python and R packages use the five above by default; set STILES_VARIANT=v3-mkl (or armv82-armpl) to select one of the others.
