JDeploy 5.0: Deploy Java Desktop Apps to ARM64 Windows and Linux with One Click
Previously, if you wanted to deploy a Java desktop app to ARM64 devices (Surface Pro X, Raspberry Pi, etc.), you needed separate build environments and complex toolchains. Now it's literally checking a box in the GUI.
Key improvements:
- Native ARM64 builds for Windows and Linux (joining existing macOS ARM64 support)
- AI setup through Claude Code integration - just say "Setup jDeploy for me"
- Customizable download pages to control which platforms you offer
- Cross-platform permissions system (macOS implemented, Windows/Linux coming)

If you have a minute and are running Linux or Windows on ARM64, please try out some of the demos. Any feedback is appreciated.
