Frequently asked questions

Is this really free?

The app itself is completely free and open source. The only cost is your AI platform subscription (Claude Code or similar), starting around $20/month. GitHub hosting for releases is also free.

Do I need to know how to code?

Not at all. That's the entire point. You describe what you want in plain English — "build me a habit tracker" or "I need an image converter" — and the AI writes all the code.

What kind of apps can it build?

Pretty much any desktop application: productivity tools, image editors, data dashboards, note-taking apps, file managers, converters, utilities — any desktop app you can describe.

Why does my antivirus flag the download?

This is a false positive caused by the app not being code signed. Code signing costs ~$70/year, and since this is a free passion project, that certificate hasn't been purchased yet. The app is fully open source — you can inspect every line on GitHub. On Windows, click "More info" then "Run anyway."

Can I use it on Mac or Linux?

Yes! The app is available for Windows, macOS (both Intel and Apple Silicon), and Linux (AppImage). The download buttons above have all platforms.
