Capacity Desktop - A free Lovable that lives on your Mac
by•
A Mac app that turns plain English into real apps — built and stored on your machine, not someone else's servers. Your code, your GitHub, your own AI at cost. No marked-up credits, no lock-in. Free, no sign-up. macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows on the roadmap.

@baboo77777 The local-first part is what caught my eye. What made you go desktop instead of another browser tab? I've built Mac-only myself and the tradeoff I keep running into is that you lose everyone who isn't on a Mac, but you gain things the browser simply can't do.

@julian_belting for people to own their stack. Online platforms are great, but the vendor lock-in is real. This app is part of a major effort for people to develop complex apps without relying on someone else infra

This seems like a competitor to @Glaze by Raycast but it seems to focus on web-distributed apps, at least from the website.
Are the desktop apps native, or Electron?

@chrismessina I'll have a look at Glaze, I really like Raycast products. Desktop apps will be electron first for simplicity but the beauty of templates is we can integrate native ones in the future
