Supported Platforms

This page lists all platforms in which the new version has been confirmed to build and run.

If your platform is not listed here, it doesn't mean Chicken doesn't run on it, it's just that nobody has tested on it yet (or nobody has updated the table below). The same is valid for Chicken versions.
