I've just released 0.6.2, which is focused on cross-platform 
fixes.

Windows:

* Static Windows libraries for Freetype have been replaced with 
dynamic ones, which makes it a lot easier to compile.

macOS:

* Freetype should now work correctly on both Intel and Apple 
Silicon.
* Compiling using DMD has been marked as unsupported and Fluid 
will refuse to compile by default. Use `Fluid_Force` to override.
* Disable coordinate scaling, since macOS does that 
automatically; Apps should now scale correctly on Retina screens.
* Implement analog scroll, scrolling should now feel far better.
