How a full release is built: tools, folder layout, what `build-release.bat` does, and where
version numbers live. Written for .NET 8 (8.2.4); updated for .NET 10 (8.3.0).
To set up a machine that can run this from scratch, see `DEV-VM-SETUP.md`.
Releases are built on the workstation; the backup laptop is the fallback. To set up a machine
that can run this from scratch, use the tool list and install commands in `DEV-VM-SETUP.md`
(the VM itself is deprecated).

# AyaNova v8 build VM setup
> **Deprecated (October 2026).** The plan to develop and build entirely in a VM was dropped: it could not cover the QuickBooks (QBI) project and some other parts. Releases are built directly on the workstation, with the backup laptop as the fallback (see `../modernization/PROJECT-OVERVIEW.md`). The tool list and install commands below are still a usable checklist for setting up either machine.
> **Purpose**: Step-by-step instructions to create a portable Windows virtual machine containing the complete AyaNova v8 build environment. This VM can run on Windows or Linux hosts.
Written February 2026 for the .NET 8 build; updated October 2026 for the .NET 10 port (AyaNova 8.3.0): the .NET 10 SDK replaces the .NET 8 SDK.
