Fournova, the developer of the popular Git client Tower today announced a public beta for its new windows app. Windows developers can now try out the app for free, and the app features a host of features. According to Fournova, the Tower app for Windows has been built using native technologies — however, it isn’t an Universal Windows App. Tobias Gunther, the CEO of Fournova stated:
“The response to our private beta was amazing. Thousands of users tested the Windows version over the course of the last months and gave us valuable feedback. With today’s launch of the public beta we give everyone instant access to the beta version. We’re excited about the feedback and are looking forward to make Tower the best Git client for Windows with the help of our users.”
