Natron 2.4.3 is here! As with all major releases everything you need to get started can be downloaded here! Downloads for previous versions can be found on GitHub.
This will probably be the last version supporting Python 2.7. Development will focus on supporting Python 3 and Qt 5, especially in the binary releases:
- Natron 2.5 will support Python 3 (Python 2 will be dropped).
- Natron 2.6 will support Qt5 (Qt 4 support will be dropped).
