Version 4.12 is developed using the .NET 6 development stack which is now a mandatory pre-requisite for the entire software suite. The technology stack is now fully compatible for cross-platform deployment on Windows and Linux, however none of the applications have been tested on Linux and currently there is no deployment mechanism other than the Windows installer. Full Linux support for the back-end services are is planned for future releases. Key underlying technology has also been upgraded or replaced to ensure the platform can support new features such as the latest Mobile Client. Despite extensive testing, this increases the risk when upgrading from older versions. It is recommended that existing installations are upgraded to the latest version of 4.11 before upgrading to 4.12.
