Title: Lazarus Snapshots Downloads

1+## Unofficial macOS Lazarus and FPC Snapshots
2+
3+I am currently making daily, automated, untested builds of the Lazarus development version (trunk in svn, main in git) for macOS -- Cocoa, 64 bit, Intel + aarch64 (M1) processors -- available on [SourceForge](https://sourceforge.net/projects/macos-lazarus-snapshots/).
4+
5+There is also a daily, automated, untested build of the development version (trunk in svn, main in git) of the Free Pascal Compiler for macOS -- aarch64 (M1) processor only.
6+
7+The only guarantee is that the software compiled successfully using a recent development version of FPC. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNTESTED SOFTWARE. Caveat Utilitor!

41+<s>I have written a program with fpcunit and [[lNet]] to check, if the daily snapshots are refreshed. You can view the [report](http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/testresults/monitor.xml), which is refreshed every 15 minutes.</s> stopped working.

43+> **Warning:** These snapshots are generated automatically and are untested. The only thing we can say is, that the compiler found the source good enough to compile. These snapshots are provided as a courtesy only. If they don't work, too bad! If they destroy your project files, crash your machine, and eat your disk: tough luck! (just to say that YOU ARE USING COMPLETELY UNTESTED SOFTWARE)''
