Native Desktop

A small native macOS app built with the Native SDK.

Install & run (macOS)

1. Download the .zip from the latest release.
2. Double-click the .zip to unzip it.
3. Right-click the app → Open (needed the first time, since the app isn't signed yet).

Prefer the terminal? One line does all of the above:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quochuydev/native-desktop/main/install.sh | bash

Updates

The app checks automatically and shows "Update available: vX.Y.Z" in the bottom-left corner when a newer release exists. To update, download the new release the same way.

Develop

native dev      # build and run (hot reload)
native check    # validate core + markup + app.zon
native build    # release binary

Releases are automated with release-please — see RELEASING.md. Requires Node.js 22+.
