Where is Rakudo x86 32-bit precompiled installer/binaries?

I would like to write my program using Perl6/Rakudo and it must run on both 32-bit and 64-bit OSes (Windows and Linux).

But 32-bit Rakudo installer will not released any more.

What is the best I can do to get working 32-bit Rakudo Star installer?

Rakudo itself is not 64-bit only and it's tested against supported Ubuntu 32-bit distributions before release.

If you need 32-bit Linux packages (Ubuntu), you'll find them here: https://github.com/nxadm/rakudo-pkg.

32-bit Windows binaries you'll have to build yourself from source: https://github.com/nxadm/rakudo-pkg.

However, be aware that 32-bit Rakudo is not JIT enabled and can be significantly slower than 64-bit.

If a compiler release, in other words not a star release, is enough for you, I offer an unofficial 32bit windows build of rakudo here: https://perl6.org/~timo/

Please be aware that I explicitly do not guarantee that it works. I have very little windows knowledge, and whenever I make a build, I have to RDP into a container offered by AppVeyor.
