PLATFORM STATUS

Host distribution and compilation target are separate claims. The supplied v12.1.0 release is a Windows x64 package. The runtime-foundation delta adds owned runtime behavior; it does not promote new host distributions or x86_64 application targets.

00 current host distribution§

Host	v12.1.0 status	Current meaning
Windows x64	SUPPORTED	Current portable package: `dbyte-v12.1.0-windows-x64.zip`.
Linux x86_64	NOT RELEASED	No v12.1 Linux host package is present in the supplied release surface.
macOS	NOT RELEASED	No v12.1 macOS host package is present in the supplied release surface.

HOST LAW: an ELF writer, freestanding target, implementation language, or roadmap does not become a released host distribution by implication.

10 execution and target profiles§

Surface	Status	Version boundary
hosted tree	DOCUMENTED	Shared hosted execution path; v12.1 adds runtime-value behavior on top of the v12.0 semantic base.
bytecode VM	DOCUMENTED	Shared VM path; current runtime contracts apply without redefining the language base.
`i686-dbyte-none`	DOCUMENTED	Base-defined freestanding profile remains documented. v12.1 does not publish a replacement profile definition.
`i686-dbyte-user`	DOCUMENTED	Base-defined user profile remains documented. Runtime ownership additions are additive.
`x86_64-dbyte-none`	DEFERRED	Roadmap surface, not a v12.1 release capability.
`x86_64-dbyte-windows`	DEFERRED	Roadmap application target, not a v12.1 release capability.
`x86_64-dbyte-linux`	DEFERRED	Roadmap application target, not a v12.1 release capability.

Continue with Install DBYTE 12.1.0. The older v12.0 platform page remains frozen as base-version guidance and must keep its original package identity.

30 host != target§

HOST
  where dbyte and dbytec execute

TARGET
  what machine and ABI the compiler emits for

WINDOWS X64 HOST
  != Win64 application target proof

ELF32 OUTPUT
  != Linux userspace support

FREESTANDING I686
  != Linux host support

40 source and version boundary§

VERSION BOUNDARY: v12.1 is the current Windows package and runtime-foundation delta. v12.0 remains the canonical semantic base for language and existing target-profile definitions. This page updates package-facing platform truth without rewriting the frozen v12.0 Getting Started tree.
