Hi, welcome to the forums.

The precompiled binaries available for the Kickstarter backers. If you backed the project, you should have received an e-mail with them. If you did not, you can still follow the instructions in the github repository and build your own version -- it's all open source after all.

You might also search this forum for the unofficial daily builds that people have made available.

Hello,

Will the precompiled versions be available to non-backers at any point? Unfortunately, I wasn't able to back the project while it was in Kickstarter, and I completely understand that backers are first (as they should be).

Precompiled binaries were considered alpha and are released to backers for testing. Although github master is being brought forward all the time to incorporate the alpha features over time, so if you want just "a binary" to flash you module and start playing with the existing features, this is available to everyone and you can build micropython from github repository.
