FAQ

Common questions

Which platforms do you support?

Windows and macOS by default. Linux support is possible when it fits the stack and deployment environment.

How do updates work?

We set up an auto-update channel and versioning. Users can receive updates silently or with a prompt, and we keep a rollback plan in case of issues.

Can it run offline?

Yes. We design for offline-first where needed, then sync to your systems when a connection is available.

Do you handle distribution through our IT tools?

We can prepare MSI/DMG packages that work with device management like Intune or Jamf, or provide standalone installers.

Ready for a desktop app your team loves?

We’ll define the critical flows, build in focused slices, and ship a signed installer with auto-updates-so rollout is painless.
