About app-it

app-it Turn a local web project — or any hosted web app — into a macOS Dock-launchable bundle — a native window, its own Dock icon, and clean start/stop — without Electron, Tauri, or a rewrite. Unofficial community project — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic or OpenAI. "Claude Code" and "Codex" are their respective owners' marks, named here only to say which assistants app-it plugs into. This is an independent open-source tool built by one developer. A real build, in motion. is an ordinary local web project (); app-it turns it into a native macOS app — double-click launches it, the window opens with its own Dock icon, and ⌘Q quits the app and frees the dev-server port. The actual generated app, not a mockup. Status — Working, in daily use. The launcher templates are battle-tested across 12+ real projects; is the first standalone, marketplace-installable release. macOS only, by design. Windows beta — macOS is in daily use; Windows is an early beta, now with its first real-hardware fixes but still needing more.
