What is an alternate viewer?

The primary viewer for Second Life is the official Second Life Viewer, available on the main Second Life Downloads page. That page also links to the latest beta, the version next in line to become the next released Viewer.

The viewers below provide alternate means of accessing Second Life.

Second Life Development Viewer

The Second Life Development Viewer is the very latest build of features and fixes that are on the way to being in the next Beta release. Every build of the main development tree is made available for you to try as soon as it's built. The Snowstorm Project page has information on the process of creating these builds and how you can contribute to them as either a developer or a tester.

Third-Party Viewers

Many Second Life developers, outside of Linden Lab, offer customized Second Life viewers. Please note that Linden Lab does not support third-party viewers.

See Third Party Viewer Directory for a listing of third-party viewers created by developers who have certified that they comply with the Policy on Third Party Viewers.

Detailed information about many viewers in the Third Party Viewer Directory may be found in the Resident-maintained Downloads article.
