# Introduction

> yappy is a Linux-only native desktop shell — Qt + GTK, with scripty for app logic.

**yappy** is a Linux-only native desktop shell written in Zig. It targets Electron / Tauri / Deno Desktop class apps **without** an embedded browser: UI is **Qt and GTK**, and app logic runs on **[scripty](/scripty)** (JS runtime + project manager).

## What yappy is for

* **Native Linux UI** — first-class **Qt** and **GTK** backends (v0.1.0 bar: both)
* **scripty for logic** — one JS/TS runtime and PM embedded in the host; no Node main process
* **Capability-scoped host** — FS and related APIs default deny; grants are explicit
* **Backend-agnostic app API** — apps target a unified widget surface where possible

## How it fits the suite

| Sibling                     | Role                                     |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| [scripty](/scripty)         | JS runtime + PM that yappy embeds        |
| [rusty](/rusty)             | Rust package manager + toolchain (Linux) |
| [worgo](/worgo)             | Go workspace project manager             |
| [pyppi](/pyppi)             | Python package manager + project tool    |
| [deploy](/deploy)           | Next.js → Cloudflare Workers CLI         |
| [git](/git)                 | solved.gg git host UI                    |
| [depotsdk-go](/depotsdk-go) | Go client for the Depot API              |

yappy is **permanently Linux-only** and **always native UI** — no webview, no Chromium, no HTML-as-shell.

## Status

yappy is in **early access / coming soon**. Install paths, CLI reference, and the native API matrix will land here as the binary stabilizes.
