== What is an alternate viewer? ==
The primary viewer for Second Life is the official Second Life Viewer, available on the main [http://secondlife.com/support/downloads/ 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. 
 
{{KBnote|If you experience problems using any of the viewers below, you may be asked to try to replicate the problem using the officially supported SL Viewer release.}}
 
 
== Second Life Project Viewers ==
A Second Life [[Viewer_Types|Project Viewer]] is an early release from a Viewer development team that provides a preview of one or more new features.  See the linked project pages for the status of the feature and instructions on how to provide feedback based on your use of the feature.

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 [http://hg.secondlife.com/viewer-development 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 [http://secondlife.com/corporate/tpv.php Policy on Third Party Viewers].
 
Detailed information about many viewers in the Third Party Viewer Directory may be found in the Resident-maintained [[Downloads#non-linden|Downloads]] article.
