Is the project alive?

[ashep]

It seems there are no activity on the project according to commits. Is the project alive and has a maintainer?

Hello,
The answer depends on your expectations from alive project.
If you have an issue using Candle or need an advise, there is a chance you can get an answer here.
If you need a new feature or improvement to be implemented, it makes sense to scan forks or try to do it yourself.

Thank you for the answer @mar0x. Just wondering why activity is so little here, did the author abandon the project?

Looks to me like its abandoned.

Last release was on Oct 30, 2019

Я его форкнул и перепиливаю под себя.

@mar0x could you open issues in your fork? I'm trying to build your fork on windows, but I always get some kind of error.

Sure. https://github.com/mar0x/Candle/issues
If the error reproduced in main repo, I would suggest to open issue for main repo.
