Nix

Nix is a macOS workspace for working through repositories with ChatGPT. This repository is a pnpm monorepo containing the desktop application, browser bridge, and product website.

Packages

• nix-desktop — Electron and Next.js desktop application
• nix-extension — Chrome extension that connects ChatGPT to the desktop app
• nix-website — download website deployed on Vercel

Development

Install every workspace package:

pnpm install

Start the desktop application:

pnpm dev

Start the website:

pnpm dev:website

Run every package's tests and production checks:

pnpm verify

Releases

Pushing a version tag such as v0.2.0 runs the release workflow. It verifies the workspace, builds the signed and notarized universal macOS application, packages the Chrome extension, and publishes the update metadata and downloads to a GitHub Release.

The website resolves its download buttons against the newest published GitHub Release, so releases do not require hardcoded website changes.
