How to Develop

Prerequisites

• Node.js ≥ 22
• Rust toolchain with the targets required by Tauri's platform prerequisites
• npm (bundled with Node) and the platform-specific Tauri dependencies for your OS

Install dependencies

npm install --prefix ./apps/desktop

Start the desktop app in development mode

npm run --prefix ./apps/desktop dev

This launches the Nuxt dev server and the Tauri shell with hot reload.

Run tests

npm run --prefix ./apps/desktop test:unit
cargo test --manifest-path apps/desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml

Build a release installer (current OS)

npm run --prefix ./apps/desktop build
npm run --prefix ./apps/desktop tauri build

Scripts

• scripts/clean-build-artifacts.sh: Removes Nuxt and Tauri build artifacts (Cargo target, .nuxt, .output, .npm-cache, dist, etc.) to reclaim disk space. Run ./scripts/clean-build-artifacts.sh --dry-run to preview deletions before executing the full cleanup.
