convertFlow Desktop — v0.1.0

convertFlow Desktop — v0.1.0

First public desktop build. Same in-browser app, wrapped in a native window so it runs without a browser tab and works fully offline.

Why a desktop build?

convertFlow is privacy-first — everything (dataset prep, chunking, embeddings, PII redaction) runs locally in your own process. The desktop build doubles down on that:

• No browser tabs to lose, no autosave conflicts with other sites
• Works fully offline once installed
• Native window controls, sized for prep work
• Same codebase as convertflow.live — nothing extra phones home

Downloads

Pick the build for your platform:

Platform	File	Notes
Windows	convertFlow_0.1.0_x64-setup.exe	NSIS installer — recommended for most users
Windows	convertFlow_0.1.0_x64_en-US.msi	MSI installer — for org-managed / silent installs
macOS (Apple Silicon)	convertFlow_0.1.0_aarch64.dmg	M1 / M2 / M3 / M4 Macs
macOS (Intel)	convertFlow_0.1.0_x64.dmg	2020-and-earlier Intel Macs
Linux (universal)	convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage	chmod +x and run — no install needed
Linux (Debian / Ubuntu)	convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.deb	sudo dpkg -i convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.deb

Install notes

Windows. This build is unsigned (code-signing certs cost ~$300–500/year). You will see a SmartScreen warning the first time you run it — click More info → Run anyway. The MSI is provided for silent / managed installs (msiexec /i convertFlow_0.1.0_x64_en-US.msi /quiet).

macOS. This build is unsigned and unnotarised (Apple Developer cert is $99/year). On first launch macOS will say "convertFlow can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software." To run anyway:

1. Right-click convertFlow.app in Applications → Open
2. Click Open in the dialog
3. After the first launch, double-click works normally

Or from Terminal: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/convertFlow.app

Linux.

• AppImage: chmod +x convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage && ./convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.AppImage
• Deb: sudo dpkg -i convertflow_0.1.0_amd64.deb (Ubuntu 22.04+ / Debian 12+)
• Requires libwebkit2gtk-4.1. Most modern distros have this; on Ubuntu install with sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0.

What's in this release

Convert tab — JSONL dataset prep for LLM fine-tuning

• 20+ format presets (OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Llama, Gemma, Qwen, DeepSeek, Cohere, Together AI, plain Alpaca/Vicuna, more)
• Real-time validation against each preset's schema
• Dataset statistics panel: role balance, token-length distribution, refusal detection, duplicate detection, content quality flags, cost estimates
• Multi-system-prompt support (round-robin / random rotation for prompt-style ablations)
• Preset auto-lock + prep auto-lock (set-and-forget defaults)

Chunk tab — RAG document chunking

• PDF text extraction (in-browser pdfjs-dist)
• Image extraction + OCR (tesseract.js)
• Configurable chunk size + overlap
• Chunk statistics: density, size variance, coverage, overlap waste
• Export to JSONL / Parquet

Utilities

• PII redactor (regex + entropy-based secret detection)
• Token counter
• Format converter (CSV ↔ JSONL ↔ Parquet)
• Diff viewer

Editor

• Monaco editor with JSONL syntax highlighting
• Split-pane preview
• Jump-to-line from stats panels

What's not in this release

• Auto-updates — you'll need to grab future releases from GitHub manually. Auto-update wiring is in the codebase but disabled for v0.1.0 until I have a signing cert.
• Code signing — unsigned on Windows and macOS. See install notes above.
• System tray — the app runs as a regular window only. Minimize-to-tray is planned.

Known issues

• First launch on macOS Gatekeeper requires the right-click-Open workaround (see above).
• Linux AppImage requires libwebkit2gtk-4.1 — older distros (Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 11) won't work; please use the web version at convertflow.live.
• Very large datasets (>500 MB) may be slow in the editor — use the web version with streaming for now.
