# CodeNomad
|
|
|
|
## A fast, multi-instance workspace for running OpenCode sessions.
|
|
|
|
CodeNomad is built for people who live inside OpenCode for hours on end and need a cockpit, not a kiosk. It delivers a premium, low-latency workspace that favors speed, clarity, and direct control.

|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
Choose the way that fits your workflow:
|
|
|
|
### 🖥️ Desktop App (Recommended)
|
|
The best experience. A native application (Electron-based) with global shortcuts, deeper system integration, and a dedicated window.
|
|
|
|
- **Download**: Grab the latest installer for macOS, Windows, or Linux from the [Releases Page](https://github.com/shantur/CodeNomad/releases).
|
|
- **Run**: Install and launch like any other app.
|
|
|
|
### 🦀 Tauri App (Experimental)
|
|
We are also working on a lightweight, high-performance version built with [Tauri](https://tauri.app). It is currently in active development.
|
|
|
|
- **Download**: Experimental builds are available on the [Releases Page](https://github.com/shantur/CodeNomad/releases).
|
|
- **Source**: Check out `packages/tauri-app` if you're interested in contributing.
|
|
|
|
### 💻 CodeNomad Server
|
|
Run CodeNomad as a local server and access it via your web browser. Perfect for remote development (SSH/VPN) or running as a service.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx @neuralnomads/codenomad --launch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command starts the server and opens the web client in your default browser.
|
|
|
|
## Highlights
|
|
|
|
- **Multi-Instance**: Juggle several OpenCode sessions side-by-side with tabs.
|
|
- **Long-Session Native**: Scroll through massive transcripts without hitches.
|
|
- **Command Palette**: A single global palette to jump tabs, launch tools, and control everything.
|
|
- **Deep Task Awareness**: Monitor background tasks and child sessions without losing flow.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- **[OpenCode CLI](https://opencode.ai)**: Must be installed and available in your `PATH`.
|
|
- **Node.js 18+**: Required if running the CLI server or building from source.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture & Development
|
|
|
|
CodeNomad is a monorepo split into specialized packages. If you want to contribute or build from source, check out the individual package documentation:
|
|
|
|
| Package | Description |
|
|
|---------|-------------|
|
|
| **[packages/electron-app](packages/electron-app/README.md)** | The native desktop application shell. Wraps the UI and Server. |
|
|
| **[packages/server](packages/server/README.md)** | The core logic and CLI. Manages workspaces, proxies OpenCode, and serves the API. |
|
|
| **[packages/ui](packages/ui/README.md)** | The SolidJS-based frontend. Fast, reactive, and beautiful. |
|
|
|
|
### Quick Build
|
|
To build the Desktop App from source:
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repo.
|
|
2. Run `npm install` (requires pnpm or npm 7+ for workspaces).
|
|
3. Run `npm run build --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad-electron-app`.
