Which download should most people use?

Most people should use the Full build because it smooths out the first-run setup path.

What is the canonical download source?

GitHub Releases is the direct source for the latest build. WinGet provides Full, Lite, and Portable package IDs, but its catalog can lag behind the newest release assets.

Where can I compare HalalDL with similar tools?

Use the HalalDL listing on AlternativeTo for discovery and comparisons. GitHub Releases remains the canonical download source.

How should I verify the installer?

Download from GitHub Releases, open SHA256SUMS.txt from the same release, and verify SHA256 before first run if you want an integrity check.
